A chameleon’s tongue can be longer than its body

A chameleon’s tongue can be longer than its body

Ballistic projection fires a sticky tongue tip onto insects in a fraction of a second — sometimes longer than the chameleon’s own body.

Muscle and elastic tissue store energy like a spring, then release one of nature’s fastest feeding strikes.

Reach beats chase. Dinner arrives by cable while the hunter barely leaves the branch.
