Sensory efficiency has driven animal evolution and survival

Evidence

Efficient use of sensory functions and communication has been one of the most important factors in the evolution and survival of animals in nature. Especially for the highest forms of evolution, vision and hearing are the two main modalities to support this view in a complementary way. — Ville Pulkki, Matti Karjalainen, Communication Acoustics- An…, 63
