So... How many other species can see the color spectrum like us? Is everyone else just greyscale or what? Ohh... What about thermal optics... What creatures have eyes that are thermal? Dicuss these questions of mine please.

Quote : | "Humans have pretty wicked vision as animals go, probably somewhere in the 98th percentile, and we only have 200,000 rods and cones packed into each square millimeter of our fovea, the area of the retina where we see best. Eagles have around 1,000,000 rods and cones in the same areas. Thus, their visual resolution is five times what we have -- it's the difference between playing Quake at 320x240 and 1600x1200, almost an unbelievable jump in accuracy. " |
