Yes! A very common mistake is that chameleons change color to blend in. They change color to their mood. If they are scared, mad, or threatened, depending on the type of chameleon, they will puff them selfs up so they look bigger, change color from their normal green, blue, and other bright but calm colors to red, black, or dark grey. Chameleons will also hiss. when they are happy, they will turn bright green, blue, or sometimes yellow.

How does a chameleon change its skin color?
Chameleons do not camouflage, this is a common misconception. They change their color as a way to express themselves towards other chameleons and to scare predators away. Many chameleons have very bright and "screaming" colors, not very suitable for camouflage. Many chameleons have a cryptic base color though. They change color with special cells called chromatophores. There are several different types of chromatophores with different colors. Chameleons are capable of the faster form of color-change, called physiological colour change. The chromatophores contain pigment and/or light reflecting matter. Simply put, these cells can expand and contract, thereby making other colors in a layer under the chromatophore visible.
