The science of camouflage.

In this video, an artist paints people to make them appear two dimensional. Art is being used as camouflage. Animals in the wild do this too of course. Zebras have their stripes, leopards have spots and some animals like the chameleon can even change the patterning on their body to fit the environment. The argument for how zebras’ stripes benefit them is that the hunter finds it difficult to distinguish an individual animal from the herd. In some cases, camouflage works differently, helping animals to blend into their surroundings when viewed from a distance.
