We’ve got our eyes on you 👀
Using 3D imaging and computational modeling, researchers from The University of Western Australia, the UWA Oceans Institute, the Smithsonian’s National Museum of Natural History, and MBARI compared the structure and function of the eyes of hyperiid amphipods, shrimp-like crustaceans that dwell in the dim waters of the ocean’s twilight zone.
Hyperia has evolved eyes that keep watch on a wide field of view but can only visualize objects nearby. Phronima—commonly known as the barrel amphipod—can see well into the distance, but at the cost of a very narrow field of view. Phronima has solved this problem by evolving a second pair of eyes for wide, but poor, peripheral vision.
Learn more about the barrel amphipod in our Animals of the Deep gallery.

passively scrolling animal/plant/fungi ID subreddits for 9,537 hours will have you identifying organisms and not knowing how. i'll just be like carpet beetle inky cap northern flicker no i don't know how to tell
it's very cool actually. it feels like the way little kids learn language, naturally through exposure and pattern recognition. i'm not confident In my IDs, because i can't back them up with evidence, but i don't need to be because i'm not doing anything with any stakes, like foraging or commenting to say what i think it is. nothing happens if im wrong
you can tell by the way it looks
you'll never guess what this method of identification is called in birding
Ant is so adorable.

SHE THINKS HER LAUGH IS A SONG SO SHE SINGS BACK
Was watching a horror movie earlier and a couple was supposed to be in a seedy motel room in middle America but they saw a Madagascar hissing cockroach run across the floor
Also big fan of when they show something rotting in horror movies and it's covered in "maggots" but the "maggots" are just mealworms
That time in Hellraiser Bloodlines they gave us giant green caterpillars with the 'maggots' for some reason.
Caterpillars AND mealworms
how do flies bite?
My favorite animals and I still only knew this from descriptions and drawn diagrams. No scientific source ever made it this clear before in my entire life.

Awww shit yall know what it is
Why bird do this?
Woodcocks and a few other species have mastered this bounce-step in order to trick worms and other Arthropoda into thinking rain has come by sending rhythmic vibrations through the soil as they walk. Many bugs surface during heavy rainfall to avoid drowning, hence why the sidewalks are always littered with earthworms during and after a storm.
If you walk with rhythm you will attract the worm.
No fucking way
