Dieser Kurzfilm ist sowas von komisch, jeder der es mit mir ansah musste lachen😂😂 Ein wirklich guter Kurzfilm😄

I love how realistic the chameleon seems at first and then he turns into a cartoon character.

[@ajsuraj]

Exactly! That tone change.

[@mattjr4206]

I thought I was the only one seeing that

Actually I noticed at the first glance that it was something wrong with him, like he was animated, I was right though

The animation is just amazing. The realism of movement of the chameleon in the beginning is brilliant

[@loganmurphey3066]

I was so confused about hat this comment was about until I actually realized its an animation😂

[@sierramoore5629]

The animation is so good that I thought it was a real chameleon.

[@Melanineforevaa]

You are so right!!!

[@djchameleon6582]

This is really good but after the minute mark it gets more unrealistic by the second

[@leafabre7174]

When you work with them all the time, this is actually a problem. They will eat until they can’t move if they are in an environment they like.

[@sophiadia8575]

Wow I didn’t know that! How do you prevent them from over eating?

[@leafabre7174]

@@sophiadia8575 careful nutrition control and weight monitoring, especially as they are juveniles and growing. You have to be very aware of what kind of proteins and fats they are getting through their bugs.

[@WaterspoutsOfTheDeep]

@@leafabre7174 wish mine was that easy going. he is picky as hell, only food he'll come over and eat out of my hand is raspberries, otherwise he wants me to set it down so he can eat it on his own.

So do I...

[@raphmaster23]

I heard that most chameleons are a look but don't touch kind of reptile?

Yeah 😂😂😂

[@nigerriamcneal953]

Monarchs are poisonous?!?

[@onebilliontacos3405]

All jokes aside though, the animation is incredible!

[@victorious276]

That part where he got the butterfly 🦋... so gross 🤢, yet so realistic 👏

[@thebirds4588]

Everyone is talking about how good the animation is, BUT WHAT DID HE TRY TO EAT AT THE END? A GIANT BUG, A MODEL AIRPLANE, OR SOMETHING?

It was more of a *pop*

[@spcrri4796]

That had me 🤢

[@Garl_Vinland]

1:06 It was at this point, the animator threw out all sense of realism

[@tiagoprieto7072]

I think it was at 0:57 when it stopped being realistic. Cause that was when the chameleon smiled. Real chameleons can’t make facial expressions.

[@brianisme6498]

@@tiagoprieto7072 they also mentioned the false fact that it uses it colour for camouflage which isn’t true. They change colour to communicate and thermoregulate.

[@misspiggy9647]

[@diobrando9992]

Childhood ruining fact: chameleons can't actually change color completely to blend in but can only make certain areas of their body brighter to intimidate another chameleon

[@bluesky_cupy5158]

And they also change color depending on their mood aswell, but it also takes quite some minutes

"Despite all it's advantages, it has yet to develop appropriate countermeasures to it's biggest weakness, it's untamed sense of appetite. It is truly a wonder that this creature has managed to survive." ... ... ...I think chameleons may be my spirit animal.

[@UseitaAtraimia]
