1. Eyes can move and focus independently and view two different images at the same time.

2. Skin pigment cells can change color depending on temperature, mood, and during breeding. Basically they communicate with other chameleons through slight color changes.

3.They can shoot out their tongue nearly a foot out and catch an insect with incredible accuracy.

A behavioral adaption would be the manner in which the chameleon moves throughout vines and limbs. They move very slow, wavy, and precise so they appear to be leaves blowing in the wind. This makes them less less likely to be spotted by a predator.

Contrary to popular belief, chameleons do not change color to blend in to their environment. The color changes that take place are due to the attitude of the chameleon. Bright vibrant colors are usually displayed when trying to attract a mate or when another male is competing for territory or a mate. When chameleon are cold, they will turn a dark color to absorb as much of the sun's heat as possible.

Chameleons, like some other arboreol reptiles, rock back and forth when climbing through exposed branches or when they feel vulnerable to mimic the swaying leaves/twigs of a tree.
