A chameleon is a unique animal because they are the only animal that can change colour.

Some chameleon species are able to change their skin colouration. Different chameleon species are able to vary their colouration and pattern through combinations of pink, blue, red, orange, green, black, brown, light blue, yellow, turquoise and purple.

Chameleons generally eat insects, but larger species, such as the common chameleon, may also take other lizards and young birds.

Chameleons are primarily found in the mainland of sub-Saharan Africa and on the island of Madagascar, although a few species are also found in northern Africa, India and southern Europe.

I think chameleons are interesting because they change colour to blend in with their environment.
