Animals perceive color in vastly different ways, with some seeing a limited range and others perceiving colors beyond human capabilities. This article explores the diverse visual worlds of various species. Humans typically see a wide spectrum of colors, but animals like dogs and cats have dichromatic vision, seeing fewer colors. Bees and birds, however, can see ultraviolet light, while some marine mammals see only in black and white. The ability to see color depends on both the eyes and the brain's ability to interpret visual information, highlighting the varied and often surprising ways different species experience the world.
