Once upon a time, there were two seahorses 

named Carrie and Cassie, and they were best 

friends. One day, Carrie and Cassie decided 

that they wanted to play hide-and-go-seek so 

Carrie, the blue seahorse, began to find a 

hiding place from Cassie, the red seahorse. 

"one, two, three, four five! Ready or not, here 

I come!" Cassie yelled. 

Cassie searched high and low, and all along 

the sea floor for Carrie, but she was no where 

to be found! Suddenly Polly the puffer fish 

came up to Cassie and asked her what she was 

doing. 

Cassie responded "Carrie and I are playing 

hide and seek but I can't find her anywhere! 

can you help me find her?"

Enthusiastically, Polly responded that she 

would, and began to look with Cassie. 

After searching for Carrie, Polly finally found 

her.

"Finally!" Carrie exclaimed. "I've been waiting 

here for a really long time!"

"I'm sorry." Polly responded. "It took Cassie 

and I a very long time to find you because you 

were camouflaged into that rock that you were 

hiding behind!" 

Polly explained that being camouflaged means 

that you blend into your surroundings so 

others can't see you. 

Polly Explained that camouflage is different 

from mimicry because mimicry is used to look 

like another organism to trick others into 

thinking you're something that you're really 

not. 

Polly said "mimicry and camouflage help 

organisms survive natural selection or survival 

of the fittest. Natural selection is when the 

organism most fit to survive in the 

environment lives and reproduces!
