Science - Zoology / cephalopods
English term or phrase: cloaking device
With its bacteria-fuelled headlamp the squid can switch on the light like a cloaking device to match the background. And it becomes invisible to its enemies. It’s as if they’ve mixed together two organs to produce a new one. The light organ is like a modified ink sac, and the light is projected through an eye-like lens
