Innate recognition of coral snake pattern by a possible avian predator |
|
| Authors: | Smith S M |
| Abstract: | Inexperienced hand-reared motmots avoided a pattern of red and yellow rings but readily attacked a pattern of green and blue rings and also one of red and yellow stripes. The motmots' avoidance of the "coral snake%" pattern indicates that mimic snake species can derive protection from some potential predators. |
