Watch a Labord’s Chameleon’s Final Colorful Display Before Ger Death

Documentary makers have witnessed the Labord’s chameleon (Furcifer labordi) putting on a spectacular display at the end of her life. Using time-lapse photography for the new PBS series Big Little Journeys, the team recorded the last few colorful hours of theLabord’s Chameleon’s life in Kirindy Forest in western Madagascar.

“On reviewing the footage, we were amazed and moved by the colorful spectacle they had filmed—something that the scientists have never observed in the wild before,” producer Valeria Fabbri-Kennedy and Chris Raxworthy, a herpetologist at the American Museum of Natural History, told Live Science.
