  1. Some cuttlefish pulse camouflage patterns. It might be something about synchronizing the flashes/pulses with the attack-flee responses time of the predator, so they overlap and can't make up their mind. (easy to suggest, hard to prove)

  2. Another reason why I abhor the idea of frolicking in the ocean.
    List it somewhere between sharks and the poisonous stone fish.

  3. Clam uses hypnotize.

    It's very effective.
