Octopuses are incredible animals that use camouflage to catch animals they want to eat and hide from animals that want to eat them. Octopuses have very good vision, and they use it to better camouflage themselves. There are three ways that octopuses can use camouflage.

The first way that octopuses use camouflage is to change the way their skin looks and feels. Octopuses control muscles under their skin that can make it look smooth or bumpy! For example, if an octopus is near a bumpy plant, to better blend in it will change its skin to match the plant’s bumpiness.
