herpetology
Lesson Outline
Discussed habitat in the wild forests of Nosy Be, NW Madagascar and how we are replicating those conditions (vegetation, temperature, humidity) in a terrarium at the School. Added spagnum moss to keep humidity above 70% in the terrarium. Introduced the Panther chameleon (Furcifer pardalis), proper handling techniques, and why he changes colors (mood, temperature more so than to look like surroundings). Fed him a cricket then colored a page of another lizard, a leaf tailed gecko, from same region in Nosy Be, Madagascar. Next week we will overview camouflage in the animal kingdom.
