They sure are. It's a Rhacodactylus ciliatus if you would like to read more about them. I thought they looked strange when I first saw them tail less, but they grew on me. They actually have never found a wild adult with a tail. Some species in the genus regenerate there tails to the point where it's very hard to tell. R. ciliatus is becoming to common in the states. I have been contemplating selling my stock to work with more rarer species in the genus, they just have a soft spot in my heart. People say they drop there tails for little to no reason, but the only time I have ever had one drop a tail is when cage mates are fighting. Another reason why I like the genus so much is they are a prime example of island gigantism.
