Many animals are expert on camouflage, thanks to millions of years of evolution. Usually we see two types of camouflage in nature: one that makes it difficult to be seen – crypsis and the other one that disguises it as something else – mimesis. Such amazing camouflage ability helps themselves by seamlessly blending with their surroundings.
