A large male O'Shaughnessy's Chameleon (Calumma oshaughnessyi) stalks up a forest liana, keeping an eye out for both prey and predator alike. With 360-degree vision, remarkable image acuity, and monocular depth perception, chameleons can detect insects that might be well out of reach, judge their distance accurately, and even distinguishing them from their surroundings when the insect is completely still. Ranomafana National Park, Madagascar.
