Look at the extraordinary ways that animals disguise themselves, including four incredible pop-up scenes. Discover the fascinating ways that animals use camouflage to hide from predators or sneak up on their prey. All kinds of creatures are the masters of disguise, from curious insects that look like a leaf or flower, to the tiger and clouded leopard stalking among the shadows of the jungle.
Using vivid, full-color photographs, this book shows how animals trick the eye by hiding in plain sight by changing their skin texture and color, covering themselves up, or even mimicking other plants and animals.
Using studies of both real animals and artificial systems, this book synthesises the current state of play in camouflage research and understanding.
Camouflage is when an animal's coloring makes it hard for other organisms to tell where they are, what they are, or where they're moving.
