3. oh come on...
Edited on Sat Jan-09-10 01:32 PM by gmoney
in the wild, it would be climbing thorny branches, rocks, fighting desert heat and cold extremes, scrounging for food and dealing with predators. I think climbing on a few pairs of plastic sunglasses is NOT a hardship. Hell, if the owner turned his back, it would probably crawl all over everything in the house anyway. The owner seems to handle him with great care and I'm sure the guy is spoiled rotten.

7. I guess I should have put a :rofl: sign
on the post since it was not suppose to be taken that serious. No more serious than the video itself.

5. I think it's what they've evolved to do
I doubt the chameleon knows the difference between camouflaging to a branch or a pair of sunglasses.

6. It's a CGI ad for sunglasses. They can't really do all those colors.

I think they are pretty much limited to green and brown.

9. That is what I was thinking.
But silly me I actually gave it the benefit of a doubt and got in trouble for posting that changing that many times to that many colors looked painful. :rofl:
