Is the Geico Lizard actually Australian?

As the foremost psychic of my time, I can answer the question of whether Mallory, the Geico lizard, is or is not Australian. He is not. He is originally a New Zealander who crossed over into Australia on the Melbourne-Christchurch landbridge sometime in the late 1980s, then emigrated to London's West End where he embarked on a theatrical career on the live stage before accepting a lead commercial role from his close friend and financial advisor, Warren Buffet, Chairman and CEO of Berkshire Hathaway.

Mallory has a touch of cockney accent due to his schooling in Yemen, along with classmate Eddie Izzard, often referred to as "Izzard the Lizard" by school chums, both of whom have strong television and youtube followings.

Like Izzard, Mallory the Geiko Lizard actually speaks several languages, including French, German, Italian, Swiss, Thousand Island and Green Goddess.
