Chemical Weapons
Different animals resort to camouflage for different reasons. Some, like the stick insect, mimic their environment to avoid predators, while others, such as the lionfish, use their disguises to ambush prey. Take a blink-and-you'll-miss-it look at some of nature's most gifted deceivers.

Giant Creepy Crawlers
Let's face it: Insects are largely misunderstood. But a closer look at these crawling creatures reveals their inherent ingenuity. From the giant prickly stick insect's extraordinary camouflage gifts to the peacock mantis's ninja-like skills, peek into the daily lives of these fascinating specimens.
