Several small animals are born blind or have adapted to blindness. Based on the provided reference, here are a few examples:
Animals That are Blind
Several small animals are either born blind or rely primarily on senses other than sight.
- Star-nosed Mole: This mammal uses its highly sensitive nose for touch, making it a very quick eater.
- Olm: This cave salamander, which looks like a baby dragon, is a naturally blind animal. It can still perceive light through its skin and hidden eyes.
While the reference specifically mentions the Olm and Star-nosed mole, there are other small animals that can be blind. This is not uncommon in cave-dwelling animals where vision is of limited use. The focus for these creatures has shifted to other senses.
