Do veiled chameleons bite a lot?

Answer 1

Chameleons will bite, but normally only when provoked. They are not naturally aggressive creatures, but like any animal will attempt to protect themselves from what they persevere as predators. Yes chameleons do bite. It depends if they are scared or angry.

Answer 2

Chameleons only attack if there territorial threats don't work. First a Chameleon will inflate itself with air, along with the pouch under there mouth, resulting in a bigger appearance and a magnificent color display. If this does not they open their mouth in the direction of the attacker and hisses. And finally if this does not work, they begin to bite and headbutt the attacker

Yes they can bite you. They use other defensive strategies like turning red or yellow when angry. Although when cornered or irritated, they may bite you. They have small teeth, so it may not hurt bad.

Answer 4

If you try to hold them, then yes. Even if you get too close to them. They will hiss to give you a warning to stay away. Their bites hurt & they can break the skin, even when they're under a year old. They're really cool to watch, but definitely not a pet to be held.
