EXPERTLY camouflaged, this clever panther chameleon knows how to catch its prey by surprise. It takes the chameleon less than 0.003 of a second to scoop up an unsuspecting grasshopper by shooting out its long, sticky tongue. The moment was captured in Lokobe Nature Reserve in northwestern Madagascar by photographer Milan Zygmunt.
