The Spinney Iguana is a fearsome looking little fellow, but is actually very shy. He looks as though he got his tail from his big brother, the Crocodile.
This beautiful Chameleon changes color to match his surroundings in order to look invisible to his prey. This one is on a red twig surrounded by the green leaves and he doesn't know which color to be, so he compromises and becomes multi-colored. We all have our methods of deception.
The Black and White Ruffed Lemur is a species of lemur that we had not seen before. This one looks like the rare Indri-Indri, only he has the real long and bushy tail. It helps him with his balance when he is navigating around in the trees.
