These are a few habitat shots of actual localities where I found veiled chameleons. I'm afraid they are not very graphic for your needs.
This is a young male collected on the old fig tree above.
The habitat is very remeniscent of the Limpopo escarpment in places, with low growing Acacia and outcrops containing stands of Aloe and Uphorbia. There's lot's of grassland and Koppies with thick stands of Tamarisk, ficus, wild dates, nut trees and others. We saw the most on roadside verges in Acacia tortilis (same species that occurs in SA), and Ziziphus sp. The area tat we were working in has two rainy seasons - One throughout the winter(intermittent drizzle mostly), and a second peripheral monsoon in the spring. The UV factor is very high as it is above 2500m, and it's deadly cold in the winter.
They are also commonly found in gardens and coffee plantations, as well as Qat (Cather edulus) plantations. This is a particulary worthwhile tree to grow if you are a student and is the primary cashcrop in Yemen. Chew a bunch of leaves for a few hours and you'll be awake till the next day with no side-effects and will remember ANYTHING you read that night (and it's indigenous to SA)

I had about 40 little obscure geckos that I had to key, and boy are these keys boring. I had to look at scale patterns on the geckos' feet and heads, some of which were the size of matchsticks. It ended up being great fun and I even just read the other keys because it suddenly became really interesting!!:-P
