The way these animals disguise themselves, millions of years of evolution to modify their bodies and behaviors to look like anything but themselves is so remarkable.

[@wdwerker]

I have seen only one sea horse in the wild and it took the divemaster pointing it out a couple of times before I could figure it out. They blend in so incredibly well!

[@Timmycoo]

Snow leopard is still my fav camo kitty. Super cute.

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- Me too. I wrote a published book in school about them. ❤

[@Makkufurai]

Shoutout also to the tiger, which is orange because its main prey species cannot see orange

[@haileydee9954]

I once visited a cave and the tour guide said something along the lines of there are bats insects and an endangered cave newt that calls this cave home and while you will likely see a bat or insect it is extremely unlikely to see a newt. To which i replied, "you mean one of those?" and immediately found one on the cave wall. I was incredibly proud lol

[@glennbabic5954]

I got an electric shock yesterday when I stepped on an invisible fish in clear shallow water. I watched the sand-coloured shape swim away.

[@albatross4920]

Which is why the beach kinda weirds me out😵‍💫😵

[@Moscato_Moscato]

Cuttlefish are so awesome!! They’re the best sea critters out there

[@happy.lil.hooman]

My anxious ass in social gatherings

[@hrhdhdhhdhe]

I use the hold my breath to turn invisible trick 😎

[@Sunflowersarepretty]

"you can't see me" -the animals in this video 😂😂

[@animalogic]

John Cena moment

[@dirkwood4544]

😒

[@nomssayin]

Lmaoo

[@tugcebalta86]

😂😆

[@WhoTheHellIsHarvy]

I can't see anything else when Aranya is smiling😅😂

[@dirkwood4544]

Makes it hard.. to pay attention

[@monnoo8221]

and the effect is the slower fading the more often we see it

[@nukelaloosh4795]

that octopus stuffed itself inside the coconut shells & went for a ride for sh*ts & giggles

[@blessedbeauty2293]

- I paused at 4:20 I wish you guys showed each species more in depth in this episode, even though I know them all, I still love to see videos about these incredible creatures. ❤️

[@EmilySmirleGURPS]

Pootoos turning into stumps and fenceposts during the day is my favorite. They have see translucent eyelids so they can conceal their eyes wide still keeping an eye on the predator.

[@liambrandley2716]

As well as camouflage, you could also do a video on mimircy

[@animalogic]

We did it! kzbin.info/www/bejne/d6rdpJWJf96FgdUsi=ifRFrq33ix_8hZwH

[@nicklindberg90]

Love this channel! Thank you and Cheers!

[@brentbeacham9691]

Nature is mind blowing.

[@Banilla468]

“Do you see it? I’ll wait!” *immediately cuts to next clip *

[@SorenAlba54]

Great video of observation, Aranya. I would say that for me, the octopus takes the crown of camouflage because the fact that they have cells that helps them change not only their color, but their exterior to match perfectly in their surroundings is ingenuity as its finest. For those of you who know, there’s a character in the IDW comics of Sonic the Hedgehog who is a shapeshifter because it happens to be a cephalopod aptly named Mimic. Hence proving my point. 🐙

[@animalogic]

Nice catch!

[@SorenAlba54]

Thank you@@animalogic

[@jamescarrington6504]

This should be called the basics of animal camouflage 😊

[@allisonbergh4429]

Tawny frogmouths are some of my favourites. They’re so good at pretending to be sticks!

[@TheHighlander2024]

Great job, Aranya! 😎👋🏿🙌🏿👍🏿

[@kimbratton9620]

It's always exciting to see a new video!!

[@roxyiconoclast]

Fabulous episode. Thank you!

[@IgneousGorilla]

Octopus are way too smart It's way too much. It's almost eerie.

[@davidbrevik2537]

That narrator just insulted the cuttlefish! They are pretty handsome!

[@touremuhammad5983]

5:30 This is the Wunderpus, not the Mimic octopus but a closely related species.

[@thechevyferrari9559]

Are there left and right faced flounders? Like when the eyes start to transition from opposite to same side, is it always one way or is it 50-50 which side will swap?

[@leithscrumhalf4143]

That's a good question and the answer's not straightforward. There are several species of flounder. Some species lie mostly on their left side with the eyes on the right but some members do the reverse. Other flounders are the complete opposite i.e. most lie on the right with some on the left. As far as I know (and I'm not a marine biologist) all species have some variation.

[@Darksh0t009]

Your team is absolutely amazing! My kids and I love your videos😊

[@palercreed]

This video content is amazing, relaxing and learning while watching🙂 Thanks!

[@geckosruleall]

So glad you're doing Second Nature again! I missed it!

[@ettinakitten5047]

Camouflage isn't just to hide from predators, but also from prey. Plenty of apex predators use camouflage as well because they don't want to frighten their prey away.

[@thenerdygirlnextdoor314]

You know, while not the most glamorous, I have to say that I'm most impressed by insects camouflaged as bird droppings. It's still baffling to me how this managed to evolve. Not the prettiest, but an impressive one.

[@BigRemzOfficial]

Is it just me or....is the host distractingly stunning!

[@blufaerie]

I love the potoo. Their call is eerie, but they camo so well!

[@jeremiasrobinson]

I wish I could disappear like a cuttlefish yet be able to be flashy when needed too.

[@nekokoishi]

6:09 Did bro just insulted a cuttlefish?

[@Jontae4288]

Yes and I can't believe he doesn't think their cute

[@tamarrajames3590]

Great episode…I love the orchid mantis too.🖤🇨🇦

[@footfault1941]

Those creepy eyes of a gecko! If perfect camouflage is to be spotted, it'd be due to eyes. It's curious for animals with a bizarre design of eye that they're seemingly visually-oriented predators.

[@Imperiused]

6:09 Wow, they didn't need to do the cuttle fish dirty like that!

[@pieoverlord]

Great video, but you should actually include pictures and clips of the featured animals next time.

[@watchdealer11]

I saw the cuttlefish immediately 😂

[@jakegordz101]

Do u know if planet wild offers bursaries for those wanting to study ecology and conservation

[@TheHighlander2024]

Great presentation and info, as usual, Aranya! 😎👋🏿👏🏿🙌🏿

[@chris_kyleartist279]

Was Sea Pony already taken when they were discovered?

[@joeshmoe8345]

She is so pretty.

[@ChaosPootato]

The shadow hiding thing is crazy, I never thought about it

[@ChaosPootato]

That octopus rolling down the seafloor in its coconut is the best though

[@andrebrunel5131]

Cammyflaj is pretty cool.

[@stephsexoticpets]

THE LITTLE OWL GETTING HEAD SCRITCHES OMG

[@Dellvmnyam]

You're so adorable, even more than pygmy seahorses ^_^

[@tonydeluna8095]

I’m currently painting a bald eagle. I think bald eagles would be an awesome video. These camouflaged creatures have been watching a lot of WWE lately, you can’t see me ! Cena

[@Digital_Apparition]

where have you been girl??, miss you

[@cyrilio]

Camouflage mostly works for visible colors humans can see. If you were to look using infrared or sometimes ultra violet the world looks completely different.

[@Scarlet_Soul]

Shame we couldn't see them in this video

[@lorincowell6944]

The voice of Fritz Weaver!

[@pdFuenteB]

What is that at 3:50? That is not a leafy sea dragon like the others. Is there variation within that species that I am not aware of? Is that another species? Or young have more divided appendages? Also the body looks less contorted and more straight. If you know tell me it is super cool!

[@pdFuenteB]

I just found it, it's called ribboned pipefish (Haliichthys taeniophorus).

[@yxx_chris_xxy]

Is that one of the geckos that say "gecko!"?

[@purplecouch4767]

Proceeds to bury myself in the sand. I am now one with nature.

[@JordanLoera-qs2eo]

If u don't watch this the moment U saw it on ur feed u don't get the +stealth.

[@andrew24601]

All those retro clips make “second nature” about as enjoyable as getting a filling at the dentist. After years of watching AnimalLogic and watching the channel grow, at this point, I’m only subscribed for FloraLogic, and if y’all keep adding in stupid retro clips to those too, not even Tasha makes it fun to watch. I wish you’d stop.

[@jimpitts5015]

The viz in this episode is top notch

[@Slickizme]

Did I hear her say “poisonous” sea snake? Really?

[@doogless]

Who else thought of the Monty Python "How Not To Be Seen" sketch watching this?

[@Channel-bz8kq]

RIP paleologic

[@yellowflowerorangeflower5706]

Those pigmy seahorses look like animatronics

[@ajayrathod7438]

Still drax have a best camouflage

[@MysticLGD]

wow

[@stueymon]

You forgot me, I'll eat an octopus

[@zookgook8577]

octipis

[@Em-nf1jf]

I am so distracted by her outfit, girl plz ily but throw that away 😭❤️

[@Dwagginz]

When Aranya said "pile of crap" I legitimately expected an animal that used faeces to disguise itself. Edit: Two seconds after I posted this... Aha!

[@spoon5307]

HIII

[@jakegordz101]

You mean flounder from the little mermaid isn't a flounder 😂

[@BiggMo]

And to think, all this came to existence from a big bang out of nothing, completely by accident.

[@laserdream42]

Am I alone in being a little disappointed by the shift to slightly misleading titles & list-format content? This used to be a go-to channel for me, now it's half a step away from "here's the top ten animals that use camouflage!"

[@ausgruenden1590]

I wish there was a version of this video without the annoying music.

[@purehyper124]

Animals are mammals.

[@rootsnootthnute8598]

Title says I'll never see these animals, but the video shows me these animals. Does this count as clickbait?

[@bennypika3575]

are we camouflager to environment or are we too 'apex' lazy for it?

[@lastlight1125]

How are trap door spiders camouflaged they're concealed in a trap door hence the name.

[@drewlovely2668]

What's with the music? Feels like I'm in a club lol not opposed to it but it just doesn't fit.

[@ltlbuddha]

An attack tactic, so an attactic

[@ramzes5677]

Openminded elk 35

[@SederickWilliams]

You are so beautiful

[@claypotts2334]

A clipped toenail? Really?

[@izznt]

Imagine a future when we've figured out (likely with ais help) how to absorb(etc) the DNA and genes that attribute to chromatophores and obtain their magical wicked epic POWWERRRS 😭😭😭❤️

[@tugcebalta86]

I love writing things which aren't relevant on videos. 😂 What is relevant as well, I put on someone.

[@paulrussell9632]

Love the video but can you not put the presenter in the middle of the screen when we are trying to look at the adaptations they themselves are narrating over? The point of the channel is to highlight the creatures of the natural world after all.

[@erichtomanek4739]

How did Arctic animals survive previous climate changes? For example the Medieval and Roman warm periods which were a lot hotter than today? Down Vote.

[@takenname8053]

I too wish to disappear in the background.

[@elizabradley4797]

Marco. 📢. Polo . K📢

[@dollenrm]

Who's the new chick?

[@animalogic]

Aranya has been with us for a few years :)

[@dollenrm]

@@animalogic nice just hadn't seen her before, she did a great job

[@a.m.1298]
