Animals That 8«« Both Ways.
Did you know that many animals
see both ways at once? A fly can
detect your approach whichever
way you try to reach him. The hare
also has the power to use his lateral­
ly placed eyes in all directions at
once, thus deciding by what it sees
how close the pursuing dog is to it.
Horses also have this power, hence
the need for using blinders to hold
the horse’s eyes in one direction,
while the giraffe is approached with
much difficulty because it sees be­
hind as well as in front, due to the
position of its eyes.
