Others can dive down hundreds of feet. These seals can store enough oxygen to stay underwater for more than two hours.

Chameleons
There are 80 different types of chameleons in the world, most of which are to be found in Africa, South of the Sahara desert. The common chameleon ranges from the middle East, along the North African coast to Southern Spain.
The chameleon is a slow-moving lizard which hunts for insects among trees and undergrowth. One of its peculiar features is its eyes, which are  set in two conical sockets and can move independently of one another. This enable the chameleon to look behind with one eye and in front with the other.
Chameleons are well-known for their ability to change colour. The skin and body markings change colour to match the surroundings. Among the plants, for example, the chameleon is very difficult to spot among foliage.
