Most important discovery in chameleon behaviour

[SilverWolf]

In just a few minutes, I have discovered something which, perhaps, has baffled many chameleon enthusiasts and anyone else even somewhat familiar with chameleons. I have discovered true chameleon body language. Just as it is possible to psychologically determine some things such as emotions, whether or not someone is lying, or excitement/enthusiasm from eye movement in humans, it is possible to with chameleons as well. A chameleon's eye position actually determines what would equate to a human's visage. Here are photographs of my discovery.
