Found an orange leopard gecko this afternoon around 2:30pm outside the Charleston City Market on Market Street, near Marion Square. It’s about 5 inches long from nose to tail, with bright orange skin and small black speckles; the tail is full and intact. Its eyes are a pale green-gold, and there’s a tiny white spot right behind the left front leg—rare feature I noticed. It seemed calm but scampers a bit when I moved, so I kept it in a small plastic container for safety. If this is yours, I’d love to reunite you— I’m around the Market Street area and can meet up or hand it over to a shelter if you prefer.
