Hide the Moth — How does natural selection work?

Natural selection is simple: whatever survives has the babies, so the survivors' traits take over the whole group. In this lesson you play a hungry bird picking moths off a tree trunk, and in four springs your own eyes turn the moths invisible — because every moth you missed is one that bred. Then factory soot blackens the tree and everything flips. Based on the true story of the peppered moth in Manchester.
