These little creatures would be a good candidate for pets. Small, cute, could use a boost to their numbers.
Be a lot cooler if we didn’t hasten that just to put them in little glass boxes in our domiciles, forced breeding of domesticated canine and felines have already enough caused genetic problems with breathing and bone density among certain breeds-for example.
Let’s let these little fellas thrive unmolested, does anyone know where I (as a westerner) could learn more about the conservation efforts mentioned in the article?
That said, any species will thrive better in its natural habitat if that habitat can be protected. Continuation of the species in captivity, if it is even possible, should be seen as a last resort and not an equal substitute.
I would love to bring these cameleons on my travels on the plane.
