The veiled chameleon is the most common chameleon species in the pet trade; this species has been kept and bred in captivity for almost thirty years. Veiled chameleons are more tolerant of captive conditions than other chameleon species, but are still challenging pets to keep healthy. [2] [18]
Chameleons are popular reptile pets, mostly imported from African countries like Madagascar, Tanzania, and Togo. [70] The most common in the trade are the Senegal chameleon (Chamaeleo senegalensis), the Yemen or veiled chameleon (Chamaeleo calyptratus), the panther chameleon (Furcifer pardalis), and Jackson's chameleon (Trioceros jacksonii).

Aviva loses her new malfunction-removing ring chip to a skinny finger mystery lemur. Chris and Martin decided to use the powers of the local chameleons to see if they can find the lemur and get the ring chip back. They also need to work with their chameleon tongues since every time they open their mouthes, their tongues fly out. Animal name: Target
With few exceptions, the chameleons most commonly seen in captivity are all members of the genus Chamaeleo; the most commonly found species in the pet trade (as well as through captive breeders) include the common, Senegal, and veiled chameleons, but all chameleons tend to require special care, and are generally suited to the intermediate or advanced reptile keeper.
Lizard is the common name used for all squamate reptiles other than snakes (and to a lesser extent amphisbaenians), encompassing over 7,000 species, [1] ranging across all continents except Antarctica, as well as most oceanic island chains.
Patterns of the veiled chameleon, Chamaeleo calyptratus, provide camouflage and signal mood as well as breeding condition. Patterns in nature are visible regularities of form found in the natural world. These patterns recur in different contexts and can sometimes be modelled mathematically.
F. oustaleti is the only chameleon of Madagascar to occur in both the most arid regions and the wettest regions (F. lateralis formerly was considered equally widespread but has been split into several species), [2] [13] and a degree of geographic variation in colour and size has been observed, [10] leading some to question whether F. oustaleti ...
