You get one vote. But I see, you are against gecko as a mascot. It is fine.

I don't think having an animal mascot is necessary, moreover I don't really like reptiles in general and particularly hate it when people keep them as pets.
When people get sick of their (reptile) pet, they let them go, and I will find them running around my feet. Which scares me, especially when these pets are harmful.
I don't see how anyone can find slimy and often foul smelling animals cute.

I don't see how anyone can find slimy and often foul smelling animals cute. Gecko's are not slimy or mushy. And my crested gecko doesn't smell foul. These are common misconceptions perpetuated by people who don't know how to take care of reptiles! Also Crested Geckos never bite, so there is nothing to be afraid of, and they are not harmful. They die in cold weather, and since I am in NY, they cannot become a problem. Just dropping some knowledge to kill off the ignorance! SUBVERT THE DOMINANT, and often INACCURATE PARADIGM!

Also Salmonella is only a problem if you let the bacteria get out of control, like when you have your pets in bad conditions. They don't naturally grow on reptiles.
Also, there is an even bigger problem with parasites of the brain, such as taxoplasmosis, which can be acquired from cats! This parasite is extremely common, and harmful to pregnant women. Just dropping some knowledge again, but thanks for your opinion Mr. Islander!

How about an Ass? It seems to me that an Ass representing the Moon would be appropriate
