Geckos are nocturnal in the wild, hiding from fierce daytime heat in burrows and under rocks. In captivity, they will burrow when overheated and shy away sometimes from bright lights. Well, not this brave little guy! This adorable footless gecko grabs a hold of a cold and refreshing Sprite and treats himself to a few sips! Interesting fact about Geckos is that they store fat and water in their tails. We guess this little guy stores Sprite in his tail for the hot summer days! So amazing to see him so up close and not be afraid of humans!

As summer temperatures hit, here is a very important tip: Drink enough water to prevent thirst and stay well-hydrated. Drink plenty of fluids the day before and within the hour before, during and after your exercise session. So, what's your favorite beverage when it comes to beating the summer heat?
