How do owls hunt in low light conditions?
- ๐๏ธ 22
Owls are well adapted to hunting in low light due to their specialized vision and hearing. Their large eyes are adapted to capture as much light as possible, making them excellent hunters at dawn, dusk, or during the night. They also have a high number of rod cells in their retinas, which help them see in dim conditions. In addition, owls have exceptional hearing, with asymmetrical ear openings that allow them to pinpoint the location of sounds with incredible precision, aiding them in locating prey even in complete darkness.
