Still Waters Posted January 18, 2018 #1 Share Posted January 18, 2018 Chameleons don’t just change the color of their skin.

Their results were published in Nature Scientific Reports. https://uk.news.yahoo.com/ultraviolet-lizards-chameleon-bones-glow-124231844.html https://www.nature.com/articles/s41598-017-19070-7 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
