What kind of chameleon is this?

I picked it up yesterday at the local pet shop they said it was a panther but I know it's not. Thanks!

The photo is not super clear but I believe from the shape of the head and the very faint chevron markings I think I see on the back that you have a Senegal chameleon (Chamaeleo senegalensis)

Can't believe the pet store thought they were selling a panther!

Here is another photo

Its a Graceful Chameleon (Chamaeleo gracilis). You can tell based on the presence of small occipital lobes, a flat casque, the size and shape of the dorsal and ventral crests, and its coloration and pattern.

Thanks for verifying that for me.
