Camouflage
Colors or patterns that help an animal blend in with its surroundings to hide from enemies or sneak up on prey.
What is it?
Camouflage is a way animals use their appearance to avoid being seen. Many turtles have shell colors and patterns that match their environment, like brown, green, or yellow spots. This helps them hide from predators. Other animals like chameleons can change color to match their background.
Why it matters
Camouflage is a key survival tool for many animals. It shows how evolution helps animals adapt to their habitats.
