GECKOS: Why do gecko feet stick to walls?

  • Resumen

  • Alexus, explain...! (Science Podcast 2022)

    Ep. 05: Why do geckos feet stick to walls? Have you ever wondered why geckos' feet are able to stick to glass or walls? Why they're able to hang upside down? Maybe you've even wondered if geckos are lizards, why they have a hole in their head, what they eat, or where they live. In this week's episode, Alexus and Michaela, two PhD students at UH Manoa, are answering questions about the science behind gecko's sticky feet (setae and spatulae), van der Waals interactions, arthropods, exoskeletons, legless lizards, convergent evolution, reptile eyelids, Madagascar Giant Day Geckos, Hawaii's invasive geckos, and so much more!

    Hope you enjoy this episode!
