Which reptiles can change colour?
Chameleons are able to change their colour to match their background. They do this by moving pigment around in their skin, and the change can be complete in just a few minutes. Chameleons use this ability to change colour for camouflage. This way they can avoid being spotted by predators. They can also get closer to prey without being seen.
