What is the natural enemy of the chameleon?
The chameleon is a very strange animal. It changes colors according to the colors of the environment. It is difficult to find the trace of the chameleon without careful observation. So what is the chameleon's natural enemy?
What are the natural enemies of chameleons?
The natural enemies of chameleons are mainly their own kind. In addition, snakes, eagles and other animals are the natural enemies of chameleons. Humans are also the natural enemies of chameleons.
2. Why do chameleons change color?
The chameleon's ability to change color depends entirely on pigment cells in the surface layer of the skin, which are filled with pigments of different colors. Anderson of the Department of Biology at Cornell University in New York explained in detail how chameleons change color: chameleons have three layers of pigment cells, the deepest layer is composed of melanin-carrying cells, in which the cells carry melanin that can blend with the upper layer of cells; the middle layer is composed of guanine cells, which mainly regulate dark blue pigment; and the outermost cells are mainly yellow pigment and red pigment. "Based on neurologic mechanisms, pigment cells are stimulated by nerves to blend pigments between layers to achieve multiple changes in the color of the chameleon," Anderson said.
3. Living habits of chameleons
The chameleon is so slow that sloths are used as metaphors for its careless appearance. Chameleons are tree-dwelling reptiles that rarely visit land except to lay eggs and courtship. They occasionally crawl on land with pointed claws, flat front and rear feet, and outward withdrawal. It is obvious that chameleons, which can effectively adapt to crawling in trees and grass, not only cannot hide themselves on land, but attract attention. Even when they panic and flee, their speed does not exceed 6 meters per minute.
The color of the chameleon is its protective color. It is a master of camouflage in nature. It can blend itself into the surrounding environment. It is a very strange animal.
