Can a cham really eat that big of a bug? That butterfly was huge!

Great footage and even more reason to get this full series when it's released! I believe they said there will be some jousting horned chameleon footage in the full show too.

The loser was spazzing like a seizure.

Thanks for this notification Chris. I'd really like to be able to buy this complete series on DVD.

So is there going to be an entire show about chameleons on BBC or something?

No. The series these clips are from, is called "Life in Cold Blood" which is about reptiles, amphibians, and other coldblooded animals. The show is currently airing in UK, on satellite and select cable channels. For more information visit:

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Life_in_Cold_Blood

The DVDs of the Television aired documentary were scheduled to be out this coming February 15th 2008, but by then, it's likely that only 4 of the 5 episodes will have aired. It might be pushed back to be released after that date of the final aired episode.

Doesn't he know he's not supposed to eat anything bigger than his head?

First episode was on tonight, you can watch it for next 7 days free at http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/ if anybody is interested. Very interesting. Good bit about chameleons at the end

 

[Kent67]

Sadly, only people with UK IP addresses can watch it from the BBC website.

 

[Simon]

Oh really? Sorry didn't realise that!

 

[m1ndless]

So is there going to be more chameleon stuff on these DVD's other than those 2 short clips? I might pick this up.

I get the BBC channel at my house, I will look for this show.
