Cuttlefish are well known for their unmatched camouflaging abilities which are possible due a variety of specialized cells; pigmented chromatophore organs, light scattering leucophores, and structurally reflecting iridophores in their skin work in concert to conceal the cuttlefish in its environment. They not only are able to swiftly change their colour and patterns, but can also use peripheral muscles to change the texture of their skin.
Cuttlefish are celebrated for their remarkable ability to blend into their environment, thanks to a sophisticated system involving specialized cells such as chromatophores, leucophores, and iridophores in their skin. This allows them not only to change color and patterns quickly but also to adjust the texture of their skin using peripheral muscles.
