Some little chameleons getting ready to sleep

I always enjoy seeing the small chameleons getting ready to sleep. Very endearing in my book.

They are Calumma linotum
Some people call them "blue nose chameleons". They're one of the smallest true chameleon species and interestingly, are the same genus as parson's chameleons, the likely biggest!

Seems so strange that they are Calumma!

Oh so cute!

Indeed! There's some evidence that a major driver of speciation of calumma species is the deep rainforest that almost all of them inhabit. So rather than appearance or size, perhaps they branched off moreso because most are good at existing in that particular habitat. Interesting/strange for sure!

Wow ! I've actually seen pics on Google of the blue nose dudes . Do all their noses turn blue for the most part? That's sick ! . Really odd/cool that they are in the parsons family too
