Last week the landscaper's found this little fellow minding his own business, doing his own thing - we now have him in a cage on the front desk...hopefully they are planning on letting him go soon. He is a Jackson's Chameleon. We don't see them very often in Kihei as they usually prefer cooler, damper areas of the Island.

12 Jackson's were introduced to the Island of Oahu, Hawaii in 1972. When they arrived from Africa they were so stressed from their long voyage that the pet shop owner released them into his garden to revive them - the rest is history! Someone told me that we are now the main suppliers of Jackson's for the US.
