∙ 11y agoCamouflage is when the colors or patters of an animal make it blend into its surroundings and making it hard to see by other animals. This can be achieved by patterned fur like a tiger or color changing skin like an octopus or chameleon. Animals do this so their prey will not see them when they are hunting, or to keep them from becoming the prey of others!

How do octopuses defend themselves?
In addition to having adaptable and ingenious camofluage, octopuses (as well as most cephalopods) can squirt an infamous "ink" from a special glandular pouch to enable their escape. The ink is actually melanin, the same pigment that determines how dark or light a human's skin tone is. Some species of deep-ocean octopus actually produce a bio-luminescent ink.

Do polar bears adapt?
Polar bears normally live in extremely cold environment .They have fur with hollow bristles to insulate and trap warm air to protect themselves from external freezing low temperature and preserve the body heat. They also have thick layer of fat under their skin.With any change in their habitat to a warm region they will either shed their fur bristles or may not be able to adapt the changed habitat and perish.better to ask how did the ancestors of polar bears adapt.1) a rapid but graduated change of fur color2) extra size3) most don't hibernate and are active looking for food all year roundfemales feast before denning but hibernating would reduce body temperature (seasonal changes awaken black bears)4) they are able to alter metabolic rates during times of food scarcity (black bears too can do this but will have times when food is plentiful an hibernate for another period of the year)5) bear eat a wide verity of food and are prepared to roam for it. Polar bears subsist mainly on mammals (but will eat vegetation during periods of the year when able to access tundra)warm water proof fur that traps heatwhite camofluage that helps them camofluage in the snow big teeth to eat snow things
