Wow, didn’t realize they could miss them if they’re not moving
Thats not necessarily true. They do have good eyesight, but just cant focus their eyes well from a distance. But, they will still see relatively fine.
This is seriously the best channel
Please never turn into what the history Channel is today
🦁 lions eyes can see 6-8 times better than A HUMAN EYE 👁☝🏻 at night
Thank you for sharing- night vision safaris are now popular and possible!
This animal is amazing. Hope to film it one day
Bravo six going dark
Felidae are great hunters mainly nocturnal with exllent eyesight

OR SIMPLY SHOW US VIEWERS/FOLLOWERS A FULL EPISODE
it lacks explanation why movement changes anything in lions vision
either it sees or not
if sees than what sees exactly
Clever girl
It looks like white hot thermal vision. Crazy that humans are innovating in ways so we can have senses like animals.
Thanks, I was wondering what kind of night vision camera this must be. I love the look of this. What would video with this camera look like of nightlife? Would it need to be completely dark or could some artificial light make it still look awesome? What would artificial light look like under this camera?
Sorry, don’t mean to pepper you with questions. Just stuff I’m wondering aloud and for anyone to give any insight.
@@mick2spic no problem. White hot thermal vision is very similar to what you see here. You can find white/black hot being used in gunner cameras in tanks/helicopters to greatly enhance vision in all lighting scenarios, night and day time. Those are the most widely found uses, and you can also easily find footage of what it looks like. You can also find it in some weapon scopes, and even binoculars/monoculars that are available to civilians.
The thermal vision, white or black hot, highlights anything with a significant or unnatural heat signature compared to the area around the highlighted target. So in a nutshell, it will highlight vehicles, people, or animals in a hunter’s case, in bright white or dark black, depending on if you’re using white or black hot. White hot would highlight a target in white, with the surrounding area being darker, and black hot would be the opposite. It’s only downfall is dust and/or smoke that can obscure the vision, at least on the early implementations of thermal vision that I’ve read about.
It’s really cool how similar our thermal vision is to this and I imagine big cats also have the ability to detect heat signatures with their sight, which is why it looks so similar.
@@dlew223 Awesome! Thanks for the knowledge Dan. I’m going to go search for and check out some of those videos of white hot thermal vision. Appreciate it.
So many soldiers in ukraine are dying because of penetrating thermal vision like these
@@dylanceder-reinke5358they die because of politics not because of that LOL
You don't intimidate me one bit...now gaze into my eyes!
