Chameleons change their color primarily to advertise their mood, or send other messages to other chameleons. They also react to the temperature, becoming darker when it is cool, and lighter when it's warmer. Chameleons use colors to attract a mate, advertise dominance or anger, signal fear or stress, and for other purposes as well. A chameleon's colors are not under its conscious control, but change in response to its emotions or physical state. They do not and cannot deliberately change colors to match what is around them.

What is special about chameleon?

Some chameleon adaptations are: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. It also makes it hard for predators to see it. 3. They can shoot out their tongue nearly a foot and catch an insect with incredible accuracy. 4. 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.
