The reptiles and spiders were found in special containers hidden in the cabin of a truck traveling towards Turkiye. To ensure the survival of the animals, they were immediately transferred to a specialized terrarium in the village of Mineralni Bani, Haskovo district. To date, some of the geckos have been relocated to other terrariums in Bulgaria, while others have been given to schools for educational purposes.
