This large chameleon is widely distributed across a range of habitat types and often translocated to areas well outside its natural range.

Setaro’s Dwarf Chameleon was considered to be threatened, but occurs in well-protected regions of north-eastern KwaZulu-Natal such as the iSimangaliso Wetland Park.
