Talk about MASTERY of camouflage…

Dr. Roger Hanlon at MBL Woods Hole has been studying these suckers for years.

Interesting how they do this when they are colorblind!  Much less how they change skin texture…

Kudos to Dr. Hanlon and his team for bringing a rather interesting creature to ‘light’ shall we say.  For more info and videos his link at MBL is HERE.

I’m off to see the kids for Christmas, so light posting and commenting for the next few days…

  1. The military would like to recreate this in so many ways. But we’re a long way from doing that.

    Merry Christmas, my friend.

  2. and just think, if they weren’t such squishy critters with such short lives, they’d probably have taken over the world by now.

  3. Nature is absolutely amazing. Not only are they color blind, but most live in total darkness. This video was made in 5′ of water, but go deeper where there is no sunlight and a whole new world is moving, killing and eating. Amazing to me.
