Antipredator Adaptions and Camouflage of the Endangered Species Liberal Democrat Congressman

Camouflage is a method of avoidance of observation that allows an otherwise visible object to remain indiscernible from the surrounding environment through deception. Examples include a tiger's stripes, the battledress of a modern soldiers, chameleons changing colors, and Democratic Congressman pretending to be Republicans.

Cryptic coloration is the most common form of camouflage, found to some extent in the majority of species. The simplest way is for an animal to be of a color similar to its surroundings. Examples include the "earth tones" of deer, but recently discovered varieties of Democrats have been found to change from blue to red when threatened with eviction from their adopted habitat. In nature, there is a strong evolutionary pressure for animals to blend into their environment or conceal their shape; for prey animals to avoid predators and for predators to be able to sneak up on prey. Thus, when Congressman like Gary Peters pretend to be Republican during election cycles, even going so far as to replace their D markings with an R, they are doing so in order to avoid real predatory Republicans who would devour them in the election. Once elections are done though, these animals are free to revert back to their usual color and shape until the next predatory round of elections comes, when they will once again don their camouflage and pretend to be Republicans.

Some cryptic animals also simulate natural movement, e.g., of a leaf in the wind. This is called procryptic behaviour or habit, and is observable in nature when the liberal variety of the Democrat runs rapidly from their positions in order to simulate not being a liberal Democrat. Some animals, notably in aquatic environments, also take steps to camouflage the odours they create that may attract predators, such as running campaign commercials touting how fiscally conservative they are after stinking up the place previously.

Some animals have evolved disruptive colouration, whereby instead of attempting to conceal themselves, they instead conceal their body shape, confusing a predator and making identification harder. An example would be zebras, who very much stand out in the savanna when alone, but en masse, their stripes allow them to merge together in the eye of a predator into a single confusing creature. Another example would be the soon to be endangered species, the liberal democrat congressman, who when threatened attempts to morph into the much better conservative republican congressman.

Some animals alter the period in which they are awake in order to avoid predators. Generally, animals are either diurnal, active during the day, nocturnal, active during the night, or crepuscular, active during twilight, depending on food availability, and predator prevalence. Highly mobile creatures such as democratic congressman migrate to Washington DC to avoid predators during the election period in which they are most vulnerable, or avoid townhalls and other constituents so as not to be attacked.

This election season, be on the lookout for animals such as these and recognize their camouflage, chameleon, and antipredator adaptions.
