The white stripe of fur on the cheetah's back helps it hide better in its environment. It allows it to better camouflage itself. The white fur will eventually be replaced with spotted fur as it matures into an adult.
Some animals have false eye spots on their bodies to make them appear larger and more threatening than they potentially could be. This could scare off predators and allow the animal to escape.
Some animals use bright coloration or patterns to warn other organisms that they are poisonous or harmful. This helps the frog escape attack from predators.
Puffer fish can move easily through the water, but they are normally very slow. They can inflate themselves to a spherical shape to appear larger and more threatening to a potential predator. The spikes of the fish also help in allowing it to escape a predatory attack.
