Beschreibung
Our senses are limited compared to some animals that see in the ultraviolet, communicate using electricity, or navigate vast distances with magnetic information. Stevens explores how other animals experience the world, how their senses were shaped by evolution, and the shocking impacts on wildlife of our bright lights and traffic noise.
