Chameleon cannibalism?!!! (Video)

[stasisb5a4]

I'm new to this forum and researching on buying a chameleon. I stumbled upon this video of a male Veiled Chameleon eating a female. Didn't know that they can be cannibals.!!??

That's why unless they're mating you don't keep 'em together. Lesson learned. Poor girl...

 

[Kmw]

It's all about size, you leave a tiny cham in with a big one- it'll happen. Oh god, that makes me sick!

 

[SpartyTessy]

Wow that is an awful owner for even letting that happen. And them laughing in the backround they should not be allowed to be a pet owner at all.

 

[stasisb5a4]

Oh man, I was thinking about buying 2, but nevermind now.

 

[KirbyTheCham]

Will the male Veil even be able to digest her??? Instead of one dead chameleon is it going to be two? I feel like punching the kids talking....they are morons.

 

[ISA my Veiled]

WOW the ignorance of people, this just pisses me off...People should be taking an exam to see if they are fit to even have a chameleon...And like some people in society whether they should have kids like these...makes me sick

 

[BocaJan]

I even keep my eyes on chams when they are mating! The male can get aggressive if she is done and he isn't.

That is the longest chameleon tail I have ever seen. Thats so weird?

 

[Zubi]

OMG He had three chams in that tiny glass enclosure http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s3O0WASPy80&feature=BFa&list=UUV1e8e46CV1ro6Mqs_tYtjw

that makes me sick. what a F%$@^( @$$!0$# @ $@#$ ^$# ^&I@!#^%$!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ahhhhhh

 

[Supergirl]

Thats terrible

 

[carol5208]

Once again, thanks for warning me with the title, cause I refuse to watch stuff like this....

 

[Chameleonmaster]

That makes me sick to my stomach if only they did there research

 

[ibdragons]

That is messed up.he will digest her but it will take her a while. , I learned from their mistake. Not that I would put a small cham with a large one but the lengths a cham would go thru to eat.

 

[camaleonte82]

it had to have been underfed at least by a little

 

[PantherEnvy]

Anytime I see one of our chameleons in a sad situation like that, it breaks my heart.

 

[RobCanada]

How does one manage to do only half the research. He included live plants, as well as uvb and heat. BUT!! He decided to cram 3 adult chams into a cage that would be to small for even one, not to mention that it's glass with the majority of the top covered by crap. This is the type of bull**** that makes me rattled.

 

[Elizadolots]

Seconding Camimom's Thank You for the warning. I didn't watch. It sounds simply horrible....

 

[Zubi]

Is it just me or is that tail extremely long and oddly skinny?
