They are characterized by their ability to change body color.
About half the world's chameleon species live on the island of Madagascar — with 59 different species existing nowhere outside of Madagascar.
The chameleon is the only lizard with zygodactyle feet. Although these feet are designed for grabbing branches, on the ground, they are very clumsy, rendering the chameleon an easy target for predators.
The chameleon's tongue can be up to twice the length of its body.
==============================================
Chameleon is derived from the Greek, meaning "little lion."

"They are probably best known for their long, sticky tongues that they use to catch prey. The tongue can be more than 1.5 times the length of their body. They "shoot" their prey with a tongue that can be projected in the blink of an eye."
With that said, they are great pets too. Really neat to see them nab a bug from such a long distance.
