Chameleons


Book Description

The one and only chameleon is world renowned for its ability to change its skin color rapidly (throughout movement of pigment cells) and for the outrageous length of its tongue (more than one and a half times its body length!). Relatives of agamids and iguanas, chameleons are insect-eating, tree climbing reptiles that have highly specialized needs. Written by a team of experienced herp experts, Chameleons intends to instruct keepers on how to best care for their chameleons and covers the four most commonly kept species: Jackson’s chameleon with its prized triceratops horns on its head, panther chameleon with its spectacular coloration, veiled chameleon with its unusual casque on its head, and the rather large Parson’s chameleon. The book subsequently is divided into four parts, each including an introduction and natural history, captive care, and reproduction of the species. Part I, Jackson’s Chameleon was written by Sean McKeown; Part II, Panther Chameleon by Gary Ferguson, James B. Murphy, Achille Raselimanana, and Jean-Baptiste Ramanamanjato; Part III, Veiled Chameleon and Part IV, Parson’s Chameleon by Kenneth Kalisch. References and index included.

Jackson's Chameleons Care


Book Description

Jackson's chameleons were not found by an analyst named Jackson; rather their name begins from an ornithologist and prior authoritative head of Kenya, Frederick Jackson. These chameleons were nearby to East Africa, yet of late have been brought into California, Hawaii, and even Florida. Energetic Jackson's chameleons are tanish, making more splendid green tone at around four or five months mature enough. Folks will as a rule be even more splendidly concealed, with blue or yellow markings. They're once in a while called three-horned chameleons considering the way that the folks of the species have minimal gritty hued horns over their eyes and one on the catch.
