You have no doubt seen them clinging to your shrubbery, climbing your walls and wolfing down all sorts of bugs and insects around your house. It's Godzilla! No, it's only a Green Anole (pronounced: uh'no-lee), one of Florida's true native lizards. Identification Like all lizards, anoles are equipped with moveable eyelids and external ear holes. Adults molt about every month, casting off skin in bits and pieces. Their feet differ from most lizards in that each toe has adhesive pads (lamellae) on its central portion, enabling the anole to climb and cling to vertical surfaces such as walls, fence posts, trees and leaves, on which they spend much of their time.

    Extractions: The evolution of extreme specialisation in chameleon tongues. This all got started back in 1998 when I visited Flagstaff after the Denver SICB meetings. When I got there Jay had this incredible story of how his chameleon ate all the other lizards in the cage. Being my usual sceptic self I had a hard time believing him until Jay got out the chameleon and staged a capture event. Sure enough ... the chameleon shot out its tongue and yanked the poor Anolis lizard of its branch with its tongue. How it was able to do this we didn't know and thus we started a successful collaboration looking at chameleon tongues. All this was expertly supervised by Kiisa. The basis It sucks ! Among lizards, tongue prehension is the predominant prey capture mode for all members of the most primitive lizard clade (iguanids, agamids and chameleons). The mechanism by which the prey adheres to the tongue during capture is considered to be based on adhesive bonding and interlocking. As the strength of the bond is determined by the surface area contacting the prey, the maximal prey size that can be transported is limited. This implies that prey consumed by chameleons should be small. Our personal observations and published records of chameleons capturing large prey such as lizards or birds stimulated us to investigate this further. We filmed chameleons eating a variety of prey by use of high-speed video systems. These films indicated that just before prey contact two tongue lips are created and positioned over the prey. To investigate the shape changes that occur in the tongue during capture, radio-opaque markers were implanted in the tongue of chameleons. Cineradiographic films of capture events indicate that at rest the tongue pad is invaginated to form a so-called pouch or dimple, which is everted upon tongue protraction. At, or just before prey contact, the pad is inverted again, and the pouch lips are placed over the prey.

    Extractions: Chameleon is the common name for certain lizards that are well known for their ability to change colors. The chameleon changes color when it is frightened, under stress, or because of changes in light, temperature, and other environmental changes. The color change is caused by hormones that affect certain pigment-containing cells in the skin of the chameleon. Contrary to popular belief, its color doesn't always change to match its surroundings.

    Extractions: Chameleon Communication By Donald L. Blanchard Ken Barnett was handling Zappa, his pet veiled chameleon ( Chamaeleo calyptratus ) one day, when he noticed that it was producing a buzzing sound from an area just in front of its front legs. Insects are known to communicate by producing vibrations which are transmitted along twigs and branches. Although such communications have never been reported among reptiles, Barnett suspected that something similar might occur with chameleons. In a report published in Copeia and reprinted (with permission) in the May, 1999 issue of Herp Beat , the newsletter of the Upstate (NY) Herpetological Association, Ken, along with Reginald Cocroft and Leo Fleishman, report their findings. Ken and his co-workers attached a sensitive accelerometer to one branch of a small branching shrub. A hand-reared adult male chameleon was then placed on the branch, approximately 4 inches (10 cm) from the accelerometer. With the male alone and undisturbed, no vibrations were detected. However, when a receptive female was placed on the same branch, the male commenced a courtship display, changing its coloration, flattening its body, and approached the female. As it did so, it also produced a series of vibrational signals; 137 of them over a period of just over an hour were recorded. Signals were produced in groups of 1 to 14, each typically beginning with a series of high-pitched short signals followed by one longer one. While the signals varied significantly, the shorter high-pitched sounds generally sere above 105 Hz, and lasted less than two tenths of a second. The longer, lower-pitched signals typically lasted close to a second, and were below 90 Hz. (

    Extractions: Chameleons are a type of lizard that has the ability to change the color of their skin with the temperature, light, and the chameleon's emotional level. They become paler when excited, afraid, or in the dark or cold; they become darker when angry or in hot temperatures or in bright light. Anatomy : Chameleons have a long, prehensile tail and a helmet-like casque on the head. They have a tremendously long, sticky tongue that is longer than their body! Veiled Chameleons range from 1.3 to 2 feet (40-60 cm) long. Diet : Veiled chameleons are insectivores (they eat insects). They catch their prey using their long, sticky tongue. The end of the tongue is wider than the base. Habitat : Veiled chameleons are native to deserts of Yemen and southern Saudi Arabia. They are well adapted to extreme temperatures and scarce water. They are now found all over the world as pets.

    Extractions: @import url(/includes/style-modern.css); Home Animals Zoo Animals Reptiles and Amphibians ... Adopt an Animal Jackson's Chameleon Chamaeloeo jacksonii Not endangered These chameleons live in East Africa, particularly Kenya and Tanzania. Needing the protection of cover from trees, chameleons rarely venture to ground except to lay eggs or mate. Although females do not always have three horns, like the male, they are often larger. An average size is between 23cms and 54 cms long. All chameleons have a prehensile tail and clawed feet with short necks. Chameleons have independently focusing eyes (which can move in different directions) giving them 360 degree vision. Jackson's chameleons live a solitary lifestyle. They can be found in the same tree but seem to ignore each other. Chameleons feed on insects, worms and various other invertebrates. Some species even eat other lizards and small birds. Jackson's chameleons reach maturity at 9 months. They are ovoviviparous animals (the eggs hatch inside the mother) with the average clutch size around twenty, laid just before they reach full term. The young are usually born in the morning, one at a time onto a branch. They are still surrounded by a gelatinous egg sac and remain asleep until the egg touches the substrate when they awaken and break through their egg sac. They are considered a long-lived chameleon (up to 10 years).

    Extractions: Animal Description: The Old World, or "True", Chameleons are some of the most unique and fascinating lizards. Unfortunately, most of them are also very delicate and considered very difficult, at best, to maintain successfully. The Veiled Chameleon is one of the most commonly kept chameleons; and though its popularity is largely due to the fact that it is one of the easiest True Chameleons to maintain and propagate in captivity, it is also one of the more attractive and impressive looking species. The Veiled Chameleon's native range is a narrow coastal region from western Yemen up into southwestern Saudi Arabia. It occupies a variety of habitats including forested mountain slopes, grasslands, high plateaus, and barren deserts.

    Extractions: Anolis carolinensis The green anole is a common lizard species on the Savannah River Site. Its habitat is arboreal; green anoles live in trees, shrubs, vines and tall grasses. They can often be found on fences and walls. Green anoles are also known as chameleons because they can quickly change color from green (when they fight) to brown (during cool weather). Males have a reddish pink throat fan, which they often exhibit when challenging other anoles. Anoles will fight other anoles to guard their territory. Green anoles, which reach lengths of 5 to 8 inches, are abundant from southern Virginia to the Florida Keys and extend west to central Texas and the southern tip of Oklahoma. Anoles eat flies, beetles, moths and spiders. Back to top Eastern Fence Lizard Sceloporus undulatus Eastern fence lizards are common on the Savannah River Site. They frequent sunny locations and will live in rotting logs in open woodlands. Fence lizards vary in color from gray to brown. Males have a blue throat patch. Adults typically range in length from 4 to 8 inches. Eastern fence lizards and several subspecies can be found from Delaware to Florida and extend west to New Mexico and Arizona. They feed on insects, beetles, spiders, centipedes and snails.
