The horns on a chameleon are made up of ringlike segments of inner bone covered by a hard keratin-like skin.

Chameleons do have taste buds on their tongue but overall they have a poor sense of taste.
Furcifer oustaleti (Oustalet’s Chameleon) is the longest chameleon species reaching lengths of 27 inches (68cm).
The word Chamaeleo is derived via Latin from the Greek word khamaileon. It roughly translates to ground lion. Khamai means on the ground and leon means lion.
Kinyongia uthmoelleri and Trioceros quadricornis gracilor have red claws.
The word Furcifer is derived from the Latin word “furci” or forked.
Chameleons have acrodont teeth meaning they are an extension of the jawbone. They are not set in sockets nor are they replaced.
