In 1972, the Jackson's Chameleon (Chamaeloeo jacksonii) was introduced to the Hawaiian Islands from its native land of Kenya and Tanzania. In the last 30 + years, these species have multiplied and formed a large breeding population on Oahu, Maui, Kauai, and Hawaii.
We find these friendly guys living in our coffee trees. While picking coffee or pruning, we find them hanging on to a branch. Not uncommon to have one climb on you with out even knowing. The males have horns, girls do not. They can change color as they are moved. A magical little animal living and sharing our life on the farm.
