I found a juvenile leopard gecko this afternoon around 3:15pm wandering near the back parking lot of the Meijer on 28th Street SE in Grand Rapids. It was in a small plastic tote with a taped lid, beside a glass terrarium with a heat lamp, a fake plant, and reptile substrate. The gecko is vivid orange with white speckles and a pale cream belly, about 4 inches long including the tail. It looked healthy but a little dusty from being outside. There’s a tiny chipped scale on the tip of its left hind toe and a small blue spot under its chin that helps identify it. It seemed curious and not panicked. I’m keeping it safe for now, hoping to help reunite it with its owner. If you recognize this reptile, please message me. I’m in Grand Rapids and can meet at a public spot to return it.
