Yesterday my young male veiled chameleon fell from a branch (in the terrarium) about a foot high. He was hanging from his tail and it unraveled. He fell face first and landed very hard. The bottom half of his body is paralyzed (I'm assuming) because he is not moving his legs or his tail. He is very brownHe is not eating or drinking but he is limping around the bottom of the terrarium. Is this the end of the road for him?

I'd say a trip to the vet is in order, sooner rather than later. The longer you wait the worse are his chances of recovering.
 
My last panther has fallen further without issues, I would suspect it would depend on how he fell. I'd imagine you wouldn't know for sure without X-rays. I honestly don't know what the treatment would be.
