Animals have unique sensory modalities that allow them to successfully navigate their environment. A particularly important role of these senses is to find prey and avoid predators. In this talk, we will discuss how a squid’s extraordinary senses help it to detect and respond to an approaching predator, as well as how this research can be applied to an invasive species in North Carolina.
Live Virtual Presentation hosted by NC Museum of Natural Sciences’ SECU Daily Planet Curator Chris Smith and the NC Department of Environmental Quality Office of Environmental Education and Public Affairs staff.
