“Researchers recently demonstrated that twig-mimicking caterpillars of the peppered moth can sense a twig’s color with their skin. Caterpillars that were blindfolded changed the color of their bodies to match their background.” Interesting right? Or is it more interesting that all of us, and I mean ALL of us, wondered more about how to blindfold a caterpillar. The scientist who had too much coffee that morning was off the list of volunteers. Maybe it was the scientist who all the other scientists made fun of because their hobby was painting Dungeons and Dragon figurines. Probably had all the necessary tools in their Drizzt Do ‘Urden backpack. Whose laughing now BOB!!
