Transparent Leopard Gecko

by intern on December 11, 2014 Comments Off on Transparent Leopard Gecko

This is a Leopard Gecko that came into Odd Pet Vet recently suffering from a liver infection. This is an interesting case because Dr. Mertz could actually see the white spots caused by the infection through the Gecko’s belly, as you can see in this photo. Generally these would be hidden by an animal’s opaque skin, but in this case the Leopard Gecko’s transparent belly was helpful for the diagnosis. He was proscribed antibiotics, and should be feeling better soon.
