Introduction
Have you ever seen an animal hiding? You might have and not even know it! Animals work very hard to blend in with the environment, whether to look for food or make sure they don’t end up as food.
Hook Question
Answer

2 Read over your last paragraph and determine, “What do I want readers to remember?”
While camouflage is a way to hide from predators, mimicry and luring is used by predators. Mimicry happens when animals look like other things. In aggressive mimicry, where animals attack for food, they make their body parts look like food to “lure” prey.
What should they remember?

Hook Question
• Camouflage• Mimicry• Luring
Conclusion
Animals have many ways of staying alive. They can use camouflage to hide, mimicry to look like nature, and luring to catch a meal. Next time you go outside, look around and see if you can find an animal using a survival skill. If you can’t it means they’re doing a good job!
