Rango passed away yesterday afternoon due to an infection that attacked his body. It is unknown what the infection was or how it was caused. I will be getting an autopsy done to find out what it is that got him.

RIP RANGO! Enjoy Chameleon Heaven big boy!

I am so very sorry for your loss of Rango. I know he will be very sadly missed my heart goes out to you. He was such a handsome boy and you have some very nice photos to remember him by. From experience I know that times helps but you never fully get over the pain. :(
 
Thank you guys. He was such a little monster. I am going to the vet this afternoon to discuss the autopsy, ill keep you all updated.

Thanks again
 
Rango was a beautiful chameleon. His colors and shape are really nice. I am so sorry you lost him, but you did all you could for him. RIP Rango
 
Thank you laurie.

I went to the vet this afternoon, i will find out the results of the autopsy tomorrow. But right now we know he had kidney failure and a stomach ulcer.
The vet made me a little plack with his foot prints so i have more to remember him bye. Its sad to see my little guy go.
 
Awww, I am so sorry you lost him. They are all so special and the gap they leave behind is awful. I have lost 3 myself, and it is always so hard. Your vet sounds wonderful to make you a plaque. I have photos and old bits of shed skin to remember mine by.
 
So sorry to hear of Rango passing on, he was one of my favourites, such a good looking boy..................
 
That was so sweet of your vet to make a plaque of Rango's footprints. I am so deeply sorry that he passed. Please know my heart is with you during this difficult time. Hopefully the necropsy will reveal more information for you.
 
Hey Lindsey, so sorry for your loss. I can honestly say that I know what you are going through as I have just lost my big boy too. Damn it hurts so much.

R.I.P Rango, you were a majestic chameleon!
 
I am so sorry to hear Rango passed. I have seen his name on the forums for quite awhile and read the posts and knew you loved your veiled. RIP Rango. We will all miss you.
 
Thank you.

The autopsy results showed he died of kidney failure along with the stomach ulcer. The vet said he also found that he had a fatty liver.
