Mini Meleon

We wrote some descriptions of a newly discovered species of Chameleon. Read Adains and Caelans descriptions, they used some lovely language to give their writing impact.


Mini Meleon

Discovered in Madagascar the tiniest chameleon, Brookseia-micra! Brookseia-micra aka mini-meleon was discoverd in Madagascar this year. It has rough scaley dry skin and its claws are like little fishing hooks put into his mitten like feet. He looks like my grumpy grandpa. It also looks like a mini hammerhead shark. Its tail is curled like a koru. It's so small it's almost invisible! Its habitat is the big jungle. It also has spikes that look like a beard. I think it would be awesome to have a mini-meleon as a pet.

Mini Minitature Meleon

Discovered in Madagascar the worlds tiniest chameleon. Its scientific name is Brookseia-micra and it's so small it can fit on the head of a match. the tiny critter looks like a grumpy wrinkly old grandpa. Its eyes are bulgy like lightbulbs. His skin is dry, rough, hard and scaley like sandpaper. His feet are pointy and his claws are like needles. I think the newly discovered little mini-meleon is one of the cutest critters in the world. It would be sad if they were no longer alive.
