The red-throated anole (also called the American chameleon or green anole) is undoubtedly one of the most commonly offered reptile species in pet and terrarium stores. Despite its enormous frequency in the trade, there is still a shocking lack of knowledge about the proper care of this species. This volume from the "Species by Species" series by Jens Rauh is intended to be a guide for anyone interested in these lizards, enabling them to care for and successfully breed this fascinating and extremely interesting species over many years.

The books in this series introduce you to the most popular terrarium animals, species by species. Each volume offers detailed, practical care instructions, and you'll find all the information you need to successfully breed your animals. All important questions, from the required tank size to terrarium setup, technical equipment, species-appropriate nutrition, and disease prevention, are answered with numerous tips and tricks. Experienced, long-time breeders reveal how to encourage the animals to reproduce and raise healthy young.

All of this is presented in full color, generously illustrated, and attractively designed, just for your terrarium animal – species by species!
