Can you think of any animal with no eyes?

[del fuego]

whatever they're called, the flesh-eating species in the film "The decent" were completely blind and physically adapted to eternal darkness (still ****ed cause Nora-Jane Noone kept her clothing on in this film though)

They still had eyes though, which sucked for them because eye-gouging was how one of them died!

Do moles have eyes? probably!

[Gerrit]

Doesn't a fly even have the special sort of eye that can see a very wide angle? Don't know the English word for it, but several insects have it...



Mussels don't have eyes. They grow against rocks, so that makes them a non-sea-animal, so they qualify for this thread

Mussels change gender every 10 minutes. Imagine a slow shag, one second the mussel is loving a beautiful female mussel, the next second he's doing a gay act



Do all types of spiders have eyes?

This one has anyway: http://physics.open.ac.uk/~dbroadhu/spider-trap.gif

FAI officials?

Or is that just that they can't see where they're leading the league?

I thought they were plant life!

Are bats not mammals ?

They don't have eyes.

After some googling, it appears moles do have eyes.

Mole Eyes

The eyes of a mole are very tiny and, in the opinion of most experts, serve only a limited function. They are comprised of a thin membrane around the snout which enables them to sense light and little else. There is no evidence to suggest moles use them to locate their prey or to navigate.

i dont think there is , i cant even find evidence of any every existing


darwin you tw at what are you going on about

surely and eye is very complex to have evolved so early ?

[Schumi]

surely an eye is very complex to have evolved so early ?

The fact that they're common across all groups of animals (reptiles, fish, birds, mammals, etc.) would indicate that eyes developed before all those groups became distinct.
