Damn, That's a Tiny Chameleon

Here is the world's smallest chameleon, the Brookesia micra, recently discovered on an island off Madagascar. These little guys are only an inch long, fully-grown.

One scientist told OurAmazingPlanet: "They are sleeping and you can just pick them up. It's like picking a strawberry, so it's easy... They do not move at all at night." But how is Brookesia micra jam?
