Sex geckos die in orbit on Russian space project

From the BBC:

Quote:
Five gecko lizards sent into orbit on a Russian space satellite as part of a sex experiment have all died, the Russian space agency says. The Foton-M4 satellite returned to Earth on Monday, the Roscosmos agency said in a statement (in Russian). Experts say the geckos may have frozen to death after the heating system broke down, Russian news agencies report.

I've always liked geckos, never really known why.

I'm a bit confused as to why it's a story though :?

Look, it's a chance to write the headline 'Sex geckos die in orbit', OK? You don't pass that kind of thing up.

Plus it sounds like the title of one of SyFy's efforts.
