Do green anoles learn how to hunt?

No. As with most reptiles, anoles abandon their offspring as eggs. The young will instinctively attack anything that moves, even a gum wrapper, consuming everything that fits into their mouths, which, in my experience, is mainly ants. Many terrestrial anoles sit and wait head-down on the trunks of trees, making a mad dash at prey that veers too close. Green anoles, on the other hand, slowly stalk their prey, pouncing when it is in reach. They tend to catch more flighted insects that their terrestrial counterparts, but everything is instinctual.
