Book excerpt: Many people believe that chameleons change their colors to blend in with their surroundings. They are partially right. Chameleons are natures quick-change artists. They can change their colors within a few moments. But they do it either to express their feelings or to help control their body temperature. This ability to change colors is only one of the things that make chameleons so interesting. Because they are so much fun to watch, many people like to keep chameleons as pets. Perhaps you would like to own a chameleon, too. This book will give you lots of information about chameleons and what you need to do to keep one as a pet. It will help you decide if its the right pet for youand if it is, to convince your parents that you and a chameleon would make a great pair.

Book excerpt: The one and only chameleon is world renowned for its ability to change its skin color rapidly (throughout movement of pigment cells) and for the outrageous length of its tongue (more than one and a half times its body length!). Relatives of agamids and iguanas, chameleons are insect-eating, tree climbing reptiles that have highly specialized needs. Written by a team of experienced herp experts, Chameleons intends to instruct keepers on how to best care for their chameleons and covers the four most commonly kept species: Jackson's chameleon with its prized triceratops horns on its head, panther chameleon with its spectacular coloration, veiled chameleon with its unusual casque on its head, and the rather large Parson's chameleon. The book subsequently is divided into four parts, each including an introduction and natural history, captive care, and reproduction of the species. Part I, Jackson's Chameleon was written by Sean McKeown; Part II, Panther Chameleon by Gary Ferguson, James B. Murphy, Achille Raselimanana, and Jean-Baptiste Ramanamanjato; Part III, Veiled Chameleon and Part IV, Parson's Chameleon by Kenneth Kalisch. References and index included.

This book was released on 2019-11-21 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's easy to understand why chameleons are so popular among reptile enthusiasts. They have very unique body plans, incredibly long tongues used to catch prey, and independently mobile eyes. They're also capable of changing colors in breath-taking fashion and make excellent photography subjects. But unfortunately, most chameleon species are challenging to maintain in captivity. They are not only somewhat fragile, but they also require special habitats and care regimens, which are too difficult for most novice keepers to provide. But a few species - including veiled chameleons, the subject of this book - are often hardy enough to thrive in the hands of dedicated keepers. We'll try to help you succeed with veiled chameleons by providing information about their natural history, biology, and captive needs. By learning more about these subjects, you will be better prepared to care for your new veiled chameleon and give him the quality of life he deserves.
