Locales:     


     All panther chameleons are from Madagascar, a small tropical island off the southeast coast of Africa.  However depending on where in Madagascar they are local to dictates their color variation.  These locales are often named after towns. 

 

Tamatave:  Tamatave panther chameleons are found on the east side of the island, near the town of Toamasina.  Males from this region typically have a uniform red-orange color when excited, and dark
green color at rest. 

 

Nosy Be:  Nosy Be panther chameleons are found on a small island a few miles off the north west coast of Madagascar.  Nosy Be means big (Be) island (Nosy), and the males from this region are typically green, aqua and/or blue, blue being the rarest.  Through many generations of selective breeding, Nosy be males are now often a deeper blue.

 

Sambava:  Sambava panthers are generally found in the Northeastern region of the island.  Normally green at rest, they have the potential to fire up to yellows, oranges, reds and maroons. 


 

Nosy Mitsio:  A rather newly discovered morph, also referred to as Mafana and soabana, this fascinating locale is located off the Northwest coast of the island and display truly stunning colors.  When at rest, they are typically a lime green with hints of red focused on the head region, they have the capability to turn banana yellow when excited.


 

Ambilobe:  Ambilobes are found in the Northwestern regions of the island, and are considered by many to have the best colors of any of the panther chameleons.  A male at rest will typically display a dark green color with dark bands, but when excited, they display anything from a yellow background to a red background with bars ranging from red, green and blue.

 

Ambanja:  This locale is indigenous to the northwestern region of Madagascar as well.  Males typically display a green to blue background with red, blue or purple bars.

 

Ankaramy:  The pink panther of Madagascar is said by some to be the rarest in captivity of the panther chameleons.  Males typically fire up to a bright pink/purple, and some have red speckling throughout. 

 

St. Marie:  Found on the island of St. Marie, off the east coast of madagascar, this locale typically has a gray background with red/maroon barring.  Not commonly found in captivity.
