Chameleons are generally shy and reserved reptiles. They can be handled but are solitary in nature. Each chameleon's personality can be different within the same species. Chameleons such as veiled chameleons are known to be the most reserved. However, you can handle them; it just takes more patience, time, and trust. Chameleons such as Jackson's and Panthers are known to be more friendly and moderate-tempered but likewise still can be shy and reserved.
