63 Color Patterns in Animals - Juniper Publishers
Abstract
Certain coloring schemes are found in animals such as one color, two colors, spotted, stripes, multi-color. These patterns are interesting in terms of the coloring schemes follow certain patterns and occur in multiple animals [1]. I identify 63 different types of coloring schemes among animals, but there are of course far more.

Discussion
My mother Jane Frances Back Struck liked visiting the Lincoln Park Zoo and Field Museum of Natural History to look at animals. She died on 7/15/2017 linked to discrimination against her investigations of animals. When one investigates the coloring schemes one finds certain patterns. I got the Golden Guide to Natural History when I was a child and I marveled at the variety of colors [2]. Here I show the some of the types of color patterns that are involved with animals

Animals follow certain coloring schemes that are interesting and mysterious for their variety. Color combinations particularly in bird species are varied and include unusual combinations like indigo and blue.
Conclusion
Animal coloring schemes follow a number of distinct patterns such as bright colors, one color, two color, three colors, stripes, spots, or multi-color. Here we show that various coloring schemes can be investigated for their variety and changes. Animal coloring schemes are distinctive, mysterious and special for their differences. The origins of the variations are not entirely clear. The colors of dinosaur skin are somewhat unclear. Dinosaur skin may exist somewhere, but its colors have not been clearly studied. Changing color schemes in chameleon, rabbits, frogs, fox are notable for the theory of camouflage but the actual reason for the changes are unclear.
