Those who believe that everything on the planet has already been discovered may simply be looking in the wrong places. A tiny chameleon discovered in northern Madagascar and measuring only 28.9 millimetres is thought to be the world's smallest reptile. The tiny chameleon was discovered recently and will be published in the January 2021 issue of Scientific Reports. But there is one thing about these critters that is unusually large for their size: Males' genitalia account for nearly 20% of their total body length.
