Another adaptation is Warning Colors . Many animals are brightly colored so predators will know they are poisonous or sting or just taste bad. Bees and wasps developed their bright yellow and black patterns to stay alive. Poisonous frogs want predators to notice them. Humans do this too.
Life is ever-inventive.
Once some toxic and stinging insects adapted warning colors, some other good tasting insects adapted to mimic them. Some flies mimic bees, and several butterflies mimic the monarch. But mimicry is not restricted to prey animals. All Rights Reserved.
