Animal Senses

From the earliest primitive life forms to sophisticated animals like mammals, primates and birds, animals have evolved powerful senses to perceive their environment. These developed senses can turn mechanical waves, airborne particles, and photons into information that helps animals find food, shelter, mates, and communicate with each other. ANIMAL SENSES traces the evolutionary history of those senses.
