An octopus uses camouflage to find food, or hide from an enemy. A Cape Fur Seal's speed and agility are valuable tools to catch a penguin, but ineffectual against a Great White Shark.

With lethal weapons wielded by fearsome predators and prey, animals walk a precarious path, here among Africa's Deadliest.
