There are four types of camouflage
• Concealing coloration – animal hides itself against a background of the same color
• Disruptive coloration – animal hides itself by breaking up its outline
• Disguise – animal blends in by looking like surroundings
• Mimicry - animals or insects look like other dangerous creatures
