Chameleons (who belong to the Chamaeleonidae family) are a highly unique clade of reptile which originate from Africa, Europe and Asia. In the present day, chameleons can be often found in warm habitats that range from rain forests to deserts and can be found throughout Africa, Madagascar, southern Europe (near the equator), southern Asia and they have even been introduced to Hawaii, California and Florida. There are over 200 recognized species of chameleon which means they come in a wide variety of sizes and colour morphs. Chameleons are adapted for visual hunting and climbing. They have multiple specialized features which help them hunt and avoid predators which include their ability to camouflage themselves by changing their color, their zygodactylous feet, their prehensile tail and their independently mobile eyes. All of the aforementioned specialized features will be discussed in a separate section of this care manual.
