Seeing Sense (1x2)

Air date: Dec 12, 1988

How do other animals see the world? How do we appear to a gorilla? Why does a woodcock have 360 degree vision? What's it like to be a dragonfly? Through animal eyes, the world is filled with bizarre hues, invisible colours and strange patterns in the sky. On this journey, fly with a vulture as it scans the ground using magnified vision, hunt with a lion to discover how it views a wildebeest, and find a fish that simultaneously sees above and below the water. Plus a look through the eyes of a bee, and the discovery that even a goldfish has remarkable visual powers.
