International Chameleon Day

Celebrated every year on May 9, International Chameleon Day shines a global spotlight on one of Madagascar’s most remarkable and threatened groups of animals.

Home to nearly half of the world’s chameleon species, Madagascar plays a critical role in protecting these extraordinary reptiles and the forests they depend on. Founded by Wildlife Madagascar and supported by partners around the world, International Chameleon Day brings together conservation organizations, zoos, aquariums, scientists, and educators to celebrate chameleons while raising awareness about the urgent need to protect their habitats. Through educational programs, social media campaigns, and community activities, this growing global event inspires people everywhere to learn about and support chameleon conservation.
