Time to paint some cows!
Researchers thought that zebras' stripes could function to deter insects, so they painted black and white stripes on cows to figure it out - the stripes reduced biting flies landing on the painted cows by around 50%! @PLOSONE #vetmed #livestock https://

A: Zebra stripes are an adaptation to avoid biting flies; no evidence that they're for camouflage. 🤯 B: You can paint cows with zebra stripes and they are less likely to be bitten by those same flies! 🤯🤯 https://t.co/hCDHtGbgS6

“We found that painting zebra-like stripes on cows can decrease the incidence of biting flies landing on individuals by 50%. [...] reduced landings of biting flies coincide with a reduction in defensive behaviors in cows.” https://t.co/WX119yS6L6
