How do different animals see the world?
Everyone probably has long known that animals see this world differently from people. Some may even know what exactly changes in the visual perception of a snake, a cow, or a turtle. But knowing in words is sometimes not enough, so we invite you to see everything with your own eyes!

1. Mouse
Mice see quite poorly what is happening at long distances. In addition, they are able to distinguish well only moving objects, while stationary ones may not be noticed at all until they hit them with their noses.
2. Snake
The visual perception of snakes is different in the daytime and at night. If at night they are able to distinguish between warm zones, then during the day the snake reacts exclusively to sudden movements. Therefore, if during the day a potential victim freezes at the sight of a snake, it is quite possible that she will not even notice it.
3. Fly
For a fly, our entire world appears to be a huge mosaic, because each facet on the eye of this insect perceives only one part of the image. On the other hand, the fly distinguishes flickering light with a frequency of up to 300 Hz (the maximum frequency of the human gaze is 50 Hz), so when you try to slap an annoying fly, it sees you as if in slow motion and always manages to leave in time.
4. Butterflies and bees
Butterflies and bees, in general, cannot boast of good eyesight, they alone can easily distinguish ultraviolet invisible to the human eye. Thanks to this ability, butterflies, and bees will perfectly be able to distinguish patterns on flowers and leaves of any plants.
5. Turtle
The turtle's vision is not very clear, but this reptile is able to easily distinguish red-yellow colors, while it does not see blue-violet shades at all.
6. jumping spider
Most spiders can't see very well and are only able to distinguish slight play of light and shadow, as well as movements within the web. The exception is jumping spiders. They are able to see the picture perfectly, almost like a person, and even more. In addition to what is happening in front of their eyes, these spiders are also able to see the picture on the sides, and even behind them.
7. Snail
Judging by the picture in front of your eyes, it is easy to conclude that they see snails ... one solid nothing. However, many scientists are not sure about this and to this day they are trying to find information about whether snails can see or not. But in general, we are inclined to believe that if snails see, it is extremely bad and not clear ...
8. Cow
The colorful and colorful world for cows is limited to only orange and yellow flowers, so these animals, alas, are not able to see fresh green grass.
9. Horse
Since the horse's eyes are located far from each other, it sees, as it were, two halves of the world, separated by a line (that is, its nose). In addition, all horses see the world in black and white and are able to distinguish many more shades of these gradations than humans.
10. Chameleon
The most strange visual perception belongs, perhaps, to a chameleon. Since the eyes of this animal are able to rotate independently of each other, the chameleon can see both what is happening in front and what is happening behind and on the sides.
11. Frog
The frog can only distinguish moving objects. Moreover, if the object is large, it will simply run away, and if it is small, it will catch and eat it. The sad thing is that if the objects are static, the frog will not notice them at all and may die of hunger when there is a huge variety of food in front of its nose.
12. Eagle
"Eagle Vision" is not just fiction, but a confirmed fact. In addition to the fact that these birds of prey are able to see the world much brighter and clearer than a person, they are also able to focus on two different objects at once. In addition, the eagle is able to see the prey even from a very long distance, for example, in-flight...
13. Thrush
The eyes of a thrush work on the principle of "binoculars", that is, it can magnify the image. In addition, the thrush is also able to focus well. And on two objects at once! Therefore, a cat who decides to hunt for a “bird” has almost no chance ...
