Chameleon eating crickets

This chameleon was in the Melbourne Museum, it isn't mine. They just happened to be feeding it while I was there so I shot some video. And for anyone who wants to make stupid comments about how this isn't the right setup for it, I trust the people at the museum more than I do random idiots on the Internet.

Have I ever mentioned I'm a frustrated wannabe nature documentary host? I was out with my kids at the museum today (how high brow am I?) and we were lucky enough to see feeding time with a chameleon.

Join in with the choruses of "ooo, urgh" as it crunches on live crickets. I even re-run the tongue shots in slo-mo because that's the way I roll ;)
