A new series of six programmes with Tony Soper 6: Camouflage
Staying alive is a serious business for animals, and their survival means being successful in the game of hide and seek.
There are all kinds of ways of vanishing from view. Juicy moths resemble broken twigs; grasshoppers look like half hoppers and who is looking for half a meal! And there are sea creatures that you can see through.
