What is special about chameleon?

Answer 1

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.

There are many interesting characteristics about chameleons. These include;
The chameleons tongue. A chameleon uses its tongue to snare unsuspecting insects. What is amazing about its tongue is that it is twice the length of its body and has a sticky, suction-cup like tip.
The chameleons tail. A chameleons tail is prehensile and is also longer than its body when fully extended.
The chameleons hands. A chameleon has zygodactylous feet which means it's fingers are placed in to groups, similar to a vice. Three on the inside and two on the outside. This arrangement gives the chameleon an excellent grip.
The chameleons eyes. A chameleons eyes are amazing because they can look in two different directions at any time. When a chameleon spots prey then the eyes both lock on to the target giving it great telescopic vision. This gives it great aim when shooting its tongue out.
And, finally, the most commonly known of the chameleons traits. Its ability to change colour. This is achieved because of the chameleons unique skin. It contains cells which can rapidly expand and compress to let different incidents of light into the skin. This means the chameleon can communicate its moods to other chameleons by changing colour. In some species change of colour is attributed to surrounding temperature and in even rarer cases it can be used consciously as camouflage.
So there you go. I hope you now have a better understanding of the wonderful chameleon.
