Summary

Description
English: Aggressive mimicry compared to a defensive form, Batesian mimicry. The mechanism is often called "Wolf in sheep's clothing". The model for an aggressive mimic can be a harmless species, in which case the 3 roles are disjunct, or the model can be the prey itself, in which case the arrangement is bipolar.[
