Q 4, Very subjective! This question would be worth debating as to exactly is meant. If one creature can see for 2 miles yet another creature can discern greater colours, depth perception, move eyes independently but no identified distance they can see, what is better?

Q 7, did anyone else think the question was oddly worded. L just went with the tallest building I knew and hoped the quizz masters knowledge was similar to mine 😳

Have a great Australia Day folk and I’ll see you on the public holiday 😁😁

yeah- eagle has the best vision, stated everywhere. As for praying mantis it has a complex eye and how it works, but nowhere, in searching now, can I find anything to say it has best vision. really comes down to wording/phrasing and choice of words used in question.
