Hey_Karsten :
Does he think that animals choose to evolve?

Nothing mimics other thing purposefully. The butterfly for example doesn’t see a pattern and go “I’m going to copy that pattern”. What happens is that over generations butterflies with a better pattern tend to survive longer and have children. Those children inherits the pattern traits and continue to survive longer until the only surviving butterflies are ones that match their environment. At no point is an animal choosing to mimic something, it just happens.

Similar example is the peppered moth; it's not mimicry, but it's a great example of natural selection.

In order for one organism to mimic another, the second creature would have to change after the first one did. So the second one would have to have evolved to mimic the first one. So evolution happened.

Like that caterpillar that has the ass that looks like a snakes head and birds don't mess with it. I think I saw that in planet earth

Or mimic the sound of your prey, so they think they’re safe thus making them easier to catch
