... eye's role in visual perception, or at the very least they are extremely sensitive to the way that human eyes are oriented," said Auguste von Bayern, formerly of the University of Cambridge and now at ...
Jackdaws can follow a person's gaze, making them the first animals other than humans known to understand the role of eyes in seeing and perceiving things, a new study suggests.
It's hard to miss the huge eye of a squid. But now it appears that certain squids can detect light through an organ other than their eyes as well.
