What are warning colors that animals use?
A warning color is a color that an animal uses to warn enemies that it is not safe to eat. Most animals that use color as a defence attempt to blend into their environment as much as possible (camouflage). Warning colors are the opposite. Animals displaying warning colors are bright and stand out. They are sending the message 'look at me, I don't need to hide from you because I know you can't hurt me.' Most animals display these warning colors to declare that they are poisonous and should never be eaten. Some animals display bright colors that appear to be warning colors, yet they are not poisonous. These are imitators - by pretending to be poisonous they can often deter most predators without going to the effort of producing venom.
