Here is a link you should read ;-) Rh. acuminatus is not the most endangered Pygmy. https://www.rockethub.com/projects/50682-chapman-s-chameleon-conserving-the-world-s-most-range-restricted-chameleon

Kinyongia carpenteri male, from Rwenzori Mtn. Named after Mr. Carpenter. Described by Parker in 1929. This species is rare, but listed as near threatened.

I know it´s an older post, but just wanted to clarify some things. Picasso is not a cross between locals, but a natural local. I think it was back in 2004 that they came into Europe and were sold under the name Picasso, as the exporter (Olaf Pronk) wanted to keep the local a secret. Some...

Its NOT a Calumma species, but a Furcifer species ;-) Furcifer balteatus ;-) When that said, people once thought it was related with the parsonii group, as it has certain similarities, bodyshape, skin structure etc. F.balteatus is closer related to F.lateralis, F.major etc. then the parsonii...

Hi. You can find more pictures of Kinyongia tavetana here: http://kamaeleoner.dk/artsgalleri/201-kinyongia-tavetana.html Here is a similar species. Kinyongia boehmei. http://kamaeleoner.dk/artsprofiler/89-kinyongia/493-kinyongia-boehmei.html

well C. tarzan does live in the newly protected Ampotaka forest (Anosibe An’Ala District, Alaotra-Mangoro Region). The project was promoted by Christian Randrianantoandro (from CSG) and his organization which works closely with the local communities in this area. The "yellow giants" does...

Well Im not sure what i would call them, but orange eyes is just a missleading name IMO. Alot of people have theories about how the different locales looks like and where they each comes from, but the fact is, most people have only seen a few pictures of the same animals and most of them...

I believe you are talking about Ralf, who hatched C.parsonii´s ? Ralf has a locale that he calls "green giants", But imo they look nothing like the green giants i have seen from masoala. Here is a link to his site. http://www.furciferpardalisnachzucht.de/Calumma-Parsonii-green-giant.htm...

Where did you hear this? I do not agree on this one. Most of the C.parsonii locales are isolated in "small" forest fragments or plantations near forest edges. The "orange eye" has the biggest distribution area, and they too differ in colours, So what is a "real" orange eye yellow giant? I have...

Chameleons are an fascinating and iconic group of reptiles, but unfortunately they appear to be under a disproportionately large level of threat with extinction. While an alarming 26% of reptiles species globally are estimated to be threatened or near threatened with extinction, an astounding...

Males in nature will form sperm from December to April (June) and the females lay eggs down at the end of the rainy season in March.
