Footballers who use stripes may learn in the animal kingdom to confuse their opponents - should they run. Research published by scientists proves that their predators can be confused by animals with stripes by appearing to be fuzzy when they move. To find out this, scientists at Newcastle University played praying mantises footage of celestial shapes created to imitate insects , moving across a backdrop. The motion was made to be like the adventures of praying mantises in the wild. The bugs, some of which had stripes that are wide or narrow, would move at different speeds across the display . Scientists discovered that the mantises found it tough to spot the bugs with stripes going at speeds. This is believed to be because the stripes onto the creature become observable into the predator and harder to observe when they move at speed. While it's been known for some time now that creatures camouflage better by blending into their environment, it is the first time that it has been demonstrated that some animals benefit from moving to conceal themselves. This research, Professor Chocolate Rowe's lead author, clarified that stripes and speed would be a winning combination from the wild. "While we did so experiment with praying mantises chasing rectangular bugs on a computer display, the identical principle must apply from the wild," he explained. "So maybe stripes help hide zebras running around the plains, or hoverflies flitting from flower to flower," she said.Prof Rowe proceeded to state that footballers could benefit from your customs. "Thus Newcastle United's stripes may be helping throw off their opponents - provided that the players are running quickly enough," she said. Sir Alex Ferguson once beautifully switched Manchester United's gray off kit at half-time whenever they were losing a game in 1996. The supervisor said he felt that they blended in with the crowd and players were not able to earn out each other in the bright sunshine. This kit was never worn by manchester United .
