Monthly Program: "Schemes and Scams: Trickery In the Natural World"

Animals use deception and trickery in order to survive and to protect their young. Driven by evolution, deception occurs in many forms - ranging from simple background-matching type of visual camouflage to more complex behaviors. Senses other than the visual can be fooled and often more than one type of deception is in use. A particular deception may even change in real time based on the particular environment. In this program, some interesting and unusual forms of deceptive behavior are highlighted.

This event is free and open to the public.
