A fun, little CGI short parodying wildlife documentaries.
I liked a lot how the animation here wasn't only pretty realistic, but also fun and expressive, getting progressively more cartoonish as the chameleon keeps capturing bigger and bigger insects with its tongue.
Compare this with that "live action" version of the Lion King done three years later: While it's true the animation from that film had an impressive level of detail, it also lacked the beauty of the original movie, all in name of having a gritter, "more mature" aesthetic, while small animations like this one proof that it is possible to have a lot of fun with hyperrealistic visuals.
