How does camouflaging help animals survive?

Why doesn't predation cause extinction?
It has, in the past. The prey animals that survived are those who have a lot of babies perhaps every several months, who are very alert to the sound, sight, and smell of predators, and who are good at finding and staying somewhere that predators have difficulty getting to. Examples include burrows and thorn bushes. Prey animals tend to live in large groups so that there are many animals alert to the sound and smell or sight of predators. On the other hand, predators typically have only 1 or 2 babies only once a year or once every two years. Predators very often lie around a lot, so they need to eat fewer prey animals.

How do animals survive a predators menace?
Animals have developed several ways to escape from predators. Running is one way, most animals will run from danger. Fighting is another. Teeth and claws often deter small predators from getting a meal. Camouflage is used to hide from those animals that would do others harm, fawns are spotted when born for just that purpose. Still others have developed natural defenses such as toads who urinate bad tasting liquid and skunks who smell really bad.
Why do certain people attract animals?
Animals are often attracted to those that they do not consider a threat. In many cases those who do not like cats will attract cats because they do not try to interact with them, and are therefore not seen as a threat. People who are calm also often attract animals.
