Description

Animals have evolved a wide range of peculiar defense mechanisms to help them protect themselves from predators and other threats. These mechanisms can be physical, such as armor, spikes, or camouflage, or they can be behavioral, such as bluffing, fleeing, or playing dead. Some animals have even developed chemical defenses, such as venom or noxious secretions, to deter would-be attackers. The peculiar defenses of animals can be fascinating to learn about and can give us insight into the ways in which animals have adapted to survive in their particular environments.
