When a tobacco leaf is attacked by a hornworm caterpillar (Manduca sexta) it produces nicotine. This toxin slows the caterpillars down but it also causes them to release a distinctive scent. The odour is detected by predators, including whiptail lizards, that protect the tobacco by eating the caterpillars. - (C) BBC Studios - Photographer: Paul Williams
