This sleeping chameleon was spotted on a night walk outside Ranomafana National Park. Though still sleeping, the chameleon went from a bright yellow green to deeper shades whilst the torch was shone on it. This only took less than a minute. The chameleon reverted back to its bright hues within 2 minutes of switching the torch off.
Oneng, I think you are thinking of a different lizard that can also change color. Chameleons are not found in Indonesia, they are mainly African in distribution with a few in southern Europe and one in India.
Yes, If I can watching the change in colour can be amazing time for me...( in Indonesia this species call ' bunglon ' )
