At the same time, they can change their body color according to conditions such as light, humidity and temperature, allowing themselves to blend perfectly with the environment to avoid capture by natural enemies.

In addition to stick insects, another insect that is good at hiding is the round-palmed moth.

Like stick insects, when the moth stops moving, it quickly wraps its wings around its body.

Coupled with its gray color, it looks like a broken twig.

This ability to disguise oneself as another organism, or mimicry, is not limited to camouflage between animals.

It also includes strange phenomena such as some plants looking very similar to animals, and some animals disguising themselves as plants.

This mimicry ability is crucial to the survival of organisms, as it can help them better adapt to their living environment and better obtain survival resources.

So the ability to mimic is a very important biological trait and a very interesting part of biodiversity.

The round-palmed boat moth is also a pest. The round-palmed boat moth is a large and widely distributed boat moth, and its distribution area spans many countries.

The adult body length is about 30 mm to 40 mm, with a wingspan of up to 90 mm. Due to its dark brown or gray-brown body color, the round-palmed boat moth is difficult to be found in the natural environment and has a strong concealment ability.

The round-palmed boat moth has a strong reproductive ability and can lay a large number of eggs in its lifetime, usually laying the eggs on leaves.

After several molts, the larvae will enter the pupal stage and eventually emerge as adults.

However, the round-palmed boat moth is also considered a pest. Its larvae feed on leaves, and the adults can also harm a variety of fruit trees and forest plants such as apples, pears, and cherries.

When there are too many of them, they will even eat the leaves of trees until they are bare and leave a lot of insect feces on the ground.

As a relatively weak link in the food chain, the round-palmed moth has many natural enemies and predators, including the gray magpie, cuckoo, woodpecker, spider and mantis.

These creatures rely on the important food source provided by the round-palmed moth to maintain the balance of the ecology.

The round-palmed boat moth also plays a key role in the pollination process of plants, can help plants reproduce, and has certain ecological effects.

Therefore, although the round-palmed boat moth is considered a pest, it also has certain ecological significance in the food chain.

Another thing that must be mentioned is the water mantis.

When it is hunting, it spreads its limbs and is extremely ferocious, but when it is not moving, it disguises itself as a branch like a stick insect, hiding itself through mimicry.

If it is touched by a human, it will quickly retract its limbs and turn them into motionless branches, floating freely in the water to avoid being discovered by other predators.

Leaf insects are also masters of mimicry. Different species of leaf insects will imitate different leaves, such as green leaves, dead leaves or semi-dead leaves.

When crawling, they rock their bodies back and forth, imitating the swaying of leaves in the wind, thereby confusing their enemies and making it difficult for predators to detect their tracks.

Finally, there is the Bell Mantis, whose mimicry ability can be said to be extreme. Its head looks like a branch, and it has several leaf-like wings at the tail.

It looks like it is imitating the growth state of leaves, and this perfect camouflage makes it difficult for predators and prey to detect its presence.

The audience was amazed at the bugs' camouflage abilities.

They couldn't believe their eyes because the bugs' camouflage skills were simply amazing.

These little creatures seem to have an uncanny ability to blend themselves into their surroundings so perfectly that their presence is almost unnoticeable.

This camouflage ability makes these insects masters of survival in nature. They use this ability to avoid being hunted by natural enemies and to get closer to prey more easily.

Viewers marveled at how the bugs blend their body colors and textures with their surroundings, allowing them to disappear invisibly on leaves, branches and even flowers.

This camouflage ability is not just about mimicking the appearance, but also involves the insect's behavior and movements.

They have learned how to stay still to avoid drawing any attention to themselves, and when they move, their movements are so slow and cautious that they are difficult to detect.

This high level of camouflage ability makes the audience have a deep respect for the intelligence and adaptability of insects.

The audience was also intrigued by the biological principles behind this camouflage ability.

They began to wonder how this ability developed during evolution and what impact it had on the insects' survival and reproduction.

They realized that this camouflage ability is not just a defense mechanism for the bugs, but one of the keys to their success in a highly competitive ecosystem.

Just as the discussion in the barrage was getting heated, Su Ran suddenly froze.

Because he was surprised to find a Chinese merganser on the river bank.

The appearance of this duck surprised him greatly, because it could be said to be a living fossil.

"The Chinese merganser is a rare waterfowl and is known as a living fossil in the water."

"They live in clear rivers and lakes and feed on fish. Due to their unique living habits and special ecological environment requirements, the number of Chinese mergansers has always been relatively scarce and they are listed as a national first-class protected animal."

Su Ran excitedly told the audience what an amazing existence he had discovered.

The Chinese merganser in the camera has a slender body and its feathers are patterned with dark brown and white, which makes it look very beautiful.

When it swam in the water, it was graceful and agile, like a flowing painting. Su Ran couldn't help being attracted by its beauty and decided to stay and observe its living habits.

After observing for a period of time, Su Ran discovered that this Chinese merganser was very smart.

It uses its surroundings to hunt, such as using the speed and direction of water flow to catch fish.

They also build nests on branches by the river, using leaves and branches to build a comfortable home. These behaviors show the uniqueness of the Chinese merganser as a living fossil.

Su Ran's research on this Chinese merganser has attracted a lot of attention.

Su Ran's research on this Chinese merganser has attracted a lot of attention.

People come to see this rare bird, hoping to witness its beauty and uniqueness with their own eyes.

In the live broadcast room barrage, one viewer joked: "This duck looks like it will be delicious when stewed."

After hearing this, Su Ran responded with a smile: "It's really a punishment."

Other viewers in the barrage also joked: "It seems that we are in for a treat tonight, Brother Su is going to show us his cooking skills!"

"I can already smell the aroma of duck and my mouth is watering."

Su Ran didn't expect the audience to be so unruly. (End of this chapter)
