The use of mimicry and cryptic coloration, in Costa Rica.
During my many visits to the dense, frequently dark forests of Costa Rica. I have been intrigued that nature has been using mimicry and cryptic coloration to survive. The use of these adaptations has fascinated me.
Whether it’s a perfect combination of colors, or a complete alteration in physical structure, these creatures are masters of keeping watchful eyes oblivious to their presence.
The aim of this panel is to illustrate the wide prevalence of these traits in animals. Their use can increase the chance of survival by hiding in plain sight.
The objective of my panel is to show some of the many forms of cryptic coloration and mimicry used by animals found in Costa Rica.
