Some basic research and image sourcing of various yellow animals on the living planet. Usually, I have found that yellow-coloured animals signify danger or a warning of toxicity to their predators- but I've found some interesting research which, in some cases, suggests otherwise- such as the sea anemone, usually yellow which purely is still yellow because of it's lack of predators- therefore, it hasn't needed to evolve to a darker colour for camouflage, and is, therefore, entirely natural.
Lots of interesting facts and information, and, of course, beautiful animals which I could, potentially, use as a reference point for illustrations within my book works final design outcome.
