Did you know that goats have rectangular or horizontally elongated pupils. This unique adaptation provides several advantages that aid in their survival. Rectangular pupils grant goats a panoramic field of view, ranging from 320 to 340 degrees. This wide visual range allows them to keep an eye on potential predators. They also allow goats to better perceive depth in their peripheral vision. This is particularly useful when they are navigating rocky or uneven terrains, as it helps them identify potential obstacles or hazards and avoid them more effectively. The rectangular pupils also enable goats to see better in low light conditions. The pupils can dilate more widely than circular pupils, allowing more light to enter the eye and thus improving the goat's vision in dim environments. Subscribe for more animal facts! #shorts
