| Synopsis
|
"Some animals hide in the sand, like the desert lizard, whose
scales can resemble pebbles and stones. Others hide in the sea, like
the peacock flounder, who can also change color. And some, like
poison dart frogs and the scarlet king snake, don't try to hide at
all! Most animals have developed clever tricks to survive, but not
all excel at camouflage the way these animals do. From moths whose
wings resemble dead leaves to eponymous stick insects, from a lizard
that looks like a tree stump to the ghost pipefish you'd mistake for
a coral reef, the range of colors, patterns, and techniques captured
here demonstrates how animals across myriad environments can disguise
themselves"Provided by publisher.
