One of the most studied examples of disruptive selection is the case of London's peppered moths. In rural areas, the peppered moths were almost all a very light color. However, these same moths were very dark in color in industrial areas. Very few medium colored moths were seen in either location. It seems that the darker colored moths survived predators in the industrial areas by blending in to the polluted surroundings. The lighter moths were seen easily by predators in industrial areas and were eaten. The opposite happened in the rural areas. The medium colored moths were easily seen in both locations and were therefore very few of them left after disruptive selection
