Chameleons


Chameleons are cool. I've never thought about them much, but I like that word.

Chameleon.
It sounds snazzy. So I did a search on them. To tell the truth, the lizards looked kinda creepy...but there was a band that looked interesting...



Anyways! Enjoy this picture.

And these interesting facts.

Did you know that...

Chameleon translated means "little Lion".

Chameleons are "ectotherms"-- there temperatures are controlled
from outside their bodies.

Chameleons react to heat and cold by changing color too.

Chameleons have ears, which are tiny holes located near their eyes.

Chameleons protect themselves by moving very slowing and swaying
back and forth as they walk to mimic a leaf blowing in the wind.

Many chameleons enjoy sleeping upside down or in a corner.

And that's all for today! If you are further interested, here is the site where I found these interesting chameleon facts.
