The raven is one smart bird, in fact it’s known as one of the most intelligent birds in the world. One of the coolest things this bird does is communicate with different calls. It has a call for when it’s happy, surprised and angry!

Meet the Panther Chameleon

Hi readers,

chickaDEE’s March Animal of the Month is the panther chameleon. We chose this reptile from Madagascar because of its colourful skin and awesome abilities. Check out this video from the documentary “Life in Cold Blood”. It shows some of the panther chameleon’s cool moves!

Wasn’t it cool how it could grab onto a leaf and just climb onto it?

Let me know what you think of this month’s animal by leaving a comment below!

Talk soon,
