Masters of Disguise: Animal Mimicry

Animals in the wild must protect themselves from predators. Some animals mimic other things, or pretend to be something less tasty so they won’t be someone’s next meal. Learn some of the tricks these animals use to stay safe. The frogfish, walking stick, mimic octopus, and the northern pygmy owl are just some of the masters of disguise you will learn about in this book. This book will allow students to construct an argument with evidence that in a particular habitat some organisms can survive well, some survive less well, and some cannot survive at all.
