The Facts
One of the species of chameleon that is often included in the harvest is the Cape Dwarf Chameleon. This chameleon is a C.I.T.E.S. appendix II protected species. According to Ordinance 19 of 1974, 44.1C of South African law it is illegal to produce a product with a part of a protected species without the necessary permit. To date no such permits have been granted by the Department of Cape Nature Conservation for the sale of any product produced with Cape Dwarf Chameleons. As a result a large quantity of the wine produced in South Africa is illegal.
