About this audiobook
Many animals avoid detection or deter threats through remarkable physical and behavioral tricks that blur the line between survival strategy and art. These adaptations—collectively termed antipredator defenses—fall into several broad categories: crypsis (blending in), mimicry (impersonating something dangerous or unpalatable), aposematism (advertising toxicity or distastefulness), deflection (drawing attacks to expendable body parts), and active deterrence (making oneself too difficult or dangerous to handle).
