Monarch butterfly
The Viceroy Butterfly uses clever mimicry of the Monarch Butterfly to deter predators.
Entomology is the adaptation of an animal to look like another animal. Sometimes animals will make themselves look bigger when they see another animal that they feel threatened by.
That is called Mimicry. This is when a species evolves to share common percieved characteristics with another species.
The Tropical American Silkworm caterpillar uses mimicry by having fake eyes on its thorax to scare potential predators. Another example of mimicry in the rainforest is a tiger moth species. Instead of visual, its defensive mimicry is auditory. Bats prefer the tiger moth over another moth species, so the tiger moth mimics the sounds of the other moth. This sometimes tricks the bats into leaving the tiger moth alone.
Some plants are poisonous because they use it to keep threat from animals away. Unlike animals, they do not have the ability to move away from a predator and their only means of defense is to poison them.
