How Bass See Color

[aavery2]

NUV, near ultraviolet is visible to insects, birds, fish and some children, 300-400 nm.

Thought I add that to the discussion.

Humans that have the disease/anamoly Aphakia are also known to be able to see into the UV spectrum.    They also have smaller pupils and there eyes dilate less.

Everyone should keep their options open when discussing science when nature is in play.

The demise of the Spotted owl is a good example. Over harvesting the northwest forest was blamed for the crash of the spotted owl population. Tree cutting was stopped, the lumber industry suffered billions of dollars in loss and 10 of thousands jobs lost as the industry shut it's doors. The science was faulty, the Barred owl , a larger cousin, was killing and displacing the Spotted owl, evolution at work, not the lumber industry.

We don't know how bass see color, we know they do.

That seems like a fitting end to this thread.

 

Good night Irene.
