Two new designs went up in my Redbubble shop today. A second baby owlbear, and a suspicion of chameleons. (Evidently chameleons do not have a group name, so I have helpfully included one of my own making.) The chameleons are based on the veiled chameleon I owned once called Vicechancellor who has since passed on.
Sales as always go to support a broke lesbian art student!

Meet Brookesia nana, the Nano-Chameleon, probably the smallest reptile in the world!
On an expedition to the Sorata Massif in northern Madagascar, my colleagues discovered this minuscule chameleon. Now we have the pleasure of introducing it to the world. We published the discovery in the OA journal Scientific Reports.
At 13.5 mm in body size, the adult male is the smallest adult reptile ever found. The adult female at 19 mm is a bit larger, hence whether it is the smallest reptile or not is a question of definition!
We show also that these tiny chameleons have comparatively massive genitals, and that this is true of most miniaturised chameleons. So, to update the adage: it’s not about absolute size, it’s about relative size.

Baby chameleon

Jigsaw I got for my birthday. Finished!
The tip of a chameleon’s long, sticky tongue suctions onto its target just prior to retracting. This partial vacuum effect helps them capture prey as large as 10% of their body mass.
