Camouflage in Animals

Many animals use camouflage to blend in with their surroundings, helping them survive.
Camouflage helps animals hide from predators, and predators sneak up on prey without being spotted.

Examples of Camouflage

Chameleons change their color to match the color of their surroundings.
Stick insects are hard to see among branches and twigs due to their color and shape.
Arctic hares:
- Are brown in summer to blend in with soil and shrubs.
- Shed fur in autumn and grow new white coats to blend in with snow in winter.
Tigers use stripes as camouflage to blend in with light and dark grasses.
African lions use their tan color to hide in savannah grasses, allowing them to creep up on prey unseen.
