Any gecko species let alone the Giant Days will not migrate. The Giant day geckos is native to the Madagascar region. The Giant Day Geckos (Phelsuma madagascariensis grandis) thrive in a habitat from 76 F - 80 F, and the climate in Madagascar suites every one of their needs. MOST reptiles are unable to adapt to another environment, if they do, they are considered to be an invasive species in most cases. The Boas native to Asia, are now adapted to the everglades of Florida, Or the Tokay gecko now adapted to Floridas conditions. These animals were not endemic to these regions but due to reptile hobbyists releasing their pets, animals escaping etc.. they are now able to cope with the environment they are provided with. If Global warming were to make the Climate crash, in that case, the reptiles would need to relocate to survive.

Madagascar hissing cockroaches are not endangered, however, their habitat is slowly disappearing due to deforestation. They can also be found in various zoos around the world.

My grandad, Harold Gibson was a Survivor of the Laconia Incident. Unfortunately, he has since passed away. I know that there was a documentary made by an American producer called Nigel Turner but Im keen to learn any more on the subject. Im not sure of the names of any other survivors. My great uncle Walter was a barkeeper on the Laconia. He survived the sinking but later died in a lifeboat. A complete listing of crew members and armed service personnel; their last address and survival status and can be found in the appendices of The Sinking of the Laconia: A Tragedy in the Battle of the Atlantic by Frederick Grossmith. ** My Grandad was also a survivor- Edward Marling...any questions email me! ** Hi, My name is Nicola Hurst. I work for a UK television production company called TalkbackThames. Our drama department are producing a prestigious feature length drama film written by Alan Bleasdale for BBC2 about the Laconia Incident. I work for the specialist factual department at Talkback. We are hoping to produce a documentary that will accompany the drama and feature first hand accounts from survivors of The Laconia Sinking, telling their own extraordinary stories. We are passionate about documenting this tragic event, which illustrates so well the courage and humanity that can persevere even in times of war, as well as the Horror. I am so keen to find out if there are any living survivors of this horrendous event and would be so grateful for any help with this. My direct telephone number is: 020 7861 8337. Thanks so much, Nicola.
