Hi All.
I stumbled on an article on what I consider to be a reputible site and wondered if anyone had any experience to back up what I read:
Bill Strand of www.chameleonnews.com wrote: | Panther Chameleons are relatively intelligent when compared to other chameleon species. They easily recognize different people and even wild caught panthers will quickly learn if a person coming by means food or not. If the same people take care of the chameleon, a Panther Chameleon will often learn their faces. The caretakers will be accepted more than strangers. |
Bill Strand of www.chameleonnews.com wrote: | ]They are one of the few chameleons that will establish a basic relationship with their keepers. Whether he is showing his dress blues or is having a casual day you have a creature of beauty and a spectacular piece of nature! |

What are you experiences?
Personally I find that Moojoo can tell the difference between me and my girlfriend. Unfortunatley he doesn't seem to like her very much! :S |

I find my panther is more affected by what T-shirt I'm wearing...colours seem to have quite an effect on how he approaches me _________________
