Look no further than mother nature, where bright colors often mean WARNING, I WILL MESS YOU UP. A few things to look up as examples:

* Rosary Pea

* Coral Snake

* Stag Beetle

* Jerusalem Cherry

* Phantasmal poison frog

* Strawberry poison dart frog

* Bittersweet nightshade berries

The Coral snake is debatable: it is so deadly that no animal can "learn" by getting bitten by it.

Instead one theory is that the mimicry is in reverse: the coral snake is mimicking the non-fatally venomous "false coral snake" which is also more numerous.

There are a variety of different theories on mimicry, and the science of the coral snake is still debated...
