I feel like the word mimicry makes it seem like these animals did it on purpose, instead of it just happening via evolution. Wouldn't that be the reason that the animals who -mimic- other species don't get it exactly right? It's not like they sat down one day and thought -Hmm, I should make myself look like that other dangerous snake so predators don't eat me. - No, they just happened to be born with a certain pattern or certain colors, which made them look like the other dangerous animal, and therefore allowed them to not get eaten, and therefore pass on their genes.

Can anyone explain to me why is parasitism categorized as predation? My teacher taught me that the term of parasitism and predation are at the same level because they are both categorized as interspecific relationship. Thanks in advance!

Looks like the title is plural, -The Naturalist on the River Amazons, - but thanks for contributing to my to-read list. I love historical science books, especially the era of naturalist explorers.

9: 00 to determine the accuracy of the mimic you'd have to look at the behavior in question and the process by which the organism developed set behavior.

Is there a thing about the angler fish? I have used crash course for several courses over time and in many I have seen a stuffed animal angler fish

Why are you mentioning all the time evolution? There is no MAKROevolution. Yes, we can observe variety of spieces but not changing of kinds.

not every human is a predator, because what about people who only eat vegetables that doesn't means they are predating on a living organism

Can you explain to me directly as to what Mullerian Mimicry and Batsian Mimicry is? I didn't really understand the defenitions.
