Home screen. Tapping on one of the circles at the bottom of the screen to explore species that use color to their advantage.
Each species has a series of stories with interactive elements.
Slider bar shows the how the sea horse changes color to camouflage with its environment.
The same slider is used to show the variety of the colorful patterns that toxic Harlequin frogs have to warn predators.
Tapping a color or sliding a finger along the bar changes the background and the color of the seahorse to illustrate the changes.
The diet of the frog is explored by tapping the circle indicator beneath the ant photos to reveal how the frog becomes poisonous from what it eats.
