: chameleons with no ears can hear? Amazing. I only hope no one has taken your posts serious. A lot of harm can come from multiple housing bro.

Yes chameleons can hear to a certain extent regardless of the fact that they have no actual ear openings. They are known to make and probably hear low frequency sound that we often pick up as vibration or buzzing. Go to to see a study about this is Ch. calyptratus. Additionally, low frequency sound waves (wind instuments, bass guitar, etc.) are known to irritate chameleons.
