Description
I lost my leopard gecko, Pico, yesterday around 3pm near the North Platte Public Library on 4th Street. He's about 4 inches long from snout to tail, tan with orange spots along his back, and the tail tip is a bit darker. He has a tiny chipped scale behind his left eye and a small scar near his right toe from a shed incident. Pico is shy but loves warm lights and crickets, and he's been part of our family since last year. It would mean the world to me to get him back; I can offer a small reward for his safe return.

How to safely get your item back
A short checklist to protect you and the item during the handoff.
Verify the finder before meeting
- Ask them to describe a detail not shown in your listing, such as an engraving, scratch, or contents.
- Request a clear photo of the item from an angle you did not post.
- Do not pay any release, shipping, or storage fee.
- Do not share your full address until you have verified them.
Meet in a safe, public place
- Police stations, café entrances, transport hubs, and shop foyers all work.
- Meet during daylight hours where there is CCTV and foot traffic.
- Avoid private homes, car parks at night, or isolated locations.
Bring someone with you
- Tell a friend or family member where you are meeting and when.
- Share your live location with them during the handoff.
- For high-value items, consider contacting your local police station for advice first.
Keep communication on lostandfound.io
- Use the in-app message thread so there is a record if something goes wrong.
- Do not move to WhatsApp, SMS, or email until you have exchanged a verifying detail.
- Never share bank details, government ID numbers, or copies of your ID.
