Chameleon - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia (997 words)
Chameleons have incredibly long tongues (sometimes longer than their own body length) which they are capable of extending out of the mouth at a rapid rate.
Chamaeleo chamaeleon (Mediterranean Chameleon) in the Makhtesh Ramon, Israel.
Chameleons are mostly arboreal and are often found in trees or occasionally on smaller bushes.
Chameleon Resource Page - chamelion (1069 words)
Chameleons have feet that are split into two main "fingers", with a soft pad in between.
An interesting, albeit useless, fact about chameleons is that they have two claws on the outside of their front foot and three on the inside, yet on the back foot this is reversed.
Chameleons move slowly most of the time (but make no mistake - an agitated chameleon will quickly sprint for safety if it thinks its captor is not watching) and sway gracefully backwards and forwards as they walk, which makes them almost appear as if they were a leaf fluttering in the wind.
