What better birthday to celebrate right before America’s than the Corvette’s? 70 years ago yesterday, the first example of America’s sports car rolled out of the factory in Flint, Michigan.

Most sharks have good vision, although there are some that don’t. The majority of them have very keen eyesight and can detect movement from long distances away. They also have the ability to see in low-light conditions and some species can even see ultraviolet light.

One thing that all sharks have in common is that they can rotate their eyeballs independently, which gives them a 360-degree view of their surroundings.

Do Sharks Have Good Vision? Yes, sharks have good vision. They can see in both murky water and in the open ocean.

Their eyes are specially adapted to help them see their prey.

One thing many sharks are missing are cones in their eyes. That means they can't see colors at all. With their evolution dating back over 400 million years, the ability to see colors wasn't important so it never developed.

The cookie cutter shark is one of the most interesting sharks in the ocean, and it never grows bigger than 18-20 inches (~50 cm). It gets its common name from its feeding strategy of biting off small chunks of much larger animals.
