Socotra chameleon
Socotra chameleon (Chamaeleo monachus) walking along a tree branch. This reptile is endemic to the Socotran archipelago of islands, meaning that it is found nowhere else. Chameleons are able to change the colour of their skin to match that of their surroundings, thereby becoming camouflaged. Socotra is located in the Indian Ocean, at the mouth of the Gulf of Aden, 340 kilometres (km) from mainland Yemen and 250km from the coast of Somalia. Its isolation has led to the evolution of a unique flora and fauna

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the enchanting beauty of a Socotra chameleon gracefully walking along a tree branch. Endemic to the remote Socotran archipelago in the Indian Ocean, this remarkable reptile is found nowhere else on Earth. With its ability to change the color of its skin, the chameleon effortlessly blends into its surroundings, becoming one with nature's vibrant tapestry. Socotra Island, situated at the mouth of the Gulf of Aden and isolated from mainland Yemen and Somalia by vast distances, has nurtured an extraordinary ecosystem over time. Its unique flora and fauna have evolved in splendid isolation, creating a haven for species like this mesmerizing chameleon. As we gaze upon this image, we are reminded of nature's ingenuity and adaptability. The intricate patterns adorning this creature's scaly skin showcase evolution's artistic touch. Each step it takes on that tree branch tells a story of resilience and survival against all odds. Let us marvel at these wonders bestowed upon us by Mother Nature herself – an island paradise where life unfolds in mysterious ways. This photograph serves as both a testament to biodiversity's splendor and a gentle reminder that our planet holds countless secrets waiting to be discovered.
