I live in a small town, where there are still houses with big gardens etc. I am just wondering how many of you have spotted a cameleon in the last few days. They are so scarce... Have you seen one recently?

Where you from? Because as far as I know the main distribution of Chameleons is Africa and Madagascar, and other tropical regions, although some species are also found in parts of southern Europe and Asia . There are introduced, feral populations of veiled and Jackson's chameleons in Hawaii and isolated pockets of feral Jackson's chameleons have been reported in California and Florida. Different members of this family inhabit all kinds of tropical and montane rain forests, savannas and sometimes semi-deserts and steppes. Chameleons are mostly arboreal and are often found in trees or occasionally on smaller bushes. Some smaller species, however, live on the ground under foliage.
