Animals are masters of disguise

In the wild, survival can be a real challenge, especially if you're smaller or slower than your potential predators. Therefore, many species have developed different methods of camouflage. These methods are different for everyone, but mainly depend on three factors: the physiology and behavior of the animal, the physiology and behavior of the predator, and the habitat in which this animal lives and hunts. The easiest way is to blend in with the background. In addition, each new generation adapts to the ability to disguise better and better. Usually animals imitate the color of their environment, although some animals are able to take on this color on themselves - for example, the well-known chameleons. The most surprising, but often the best way to hide is to stay in the crowd, because when a lion looks at a herd of zebras, he sees only a black and white striped mass. In short, here are the best examples of animals that have mastered various methods of disguise to perfection.
