Really? I thought we had superior ability to differentiate colour....I had always taken pride in that when bragging to the other primates.

Yeah you'd think that but our eyes are pretty bad compared to all the light sources we can't see.
They are pretty much useless on a grand cosmological scale. We see like a sliver of the light spectrum and not
even the good sliver.

Well, we share 98.9% of our dna with chimps. What adaptative advantage would that have provided them?Yeah you'd think that but our eyes are pretty bad compared to all the light sources we can't see.

Regardless it's fun to imagine how other species see.
Yep. Absolutely. Neil Tyson had an interesting thought on that tiny 1% of DNA where we differ from Chimps.
We like to think of ourselves as so much different and better but
what if that 1% difference isn't really that much at all?

Dude, Dr. Sapolsky is my go-to expert for this topic. But I'll give this Tyson chap a listen in 3, 2, 1.
Haha Rob is a BOSS

Highly entertaining.
According to Sapolsky, our gestation is what produces our ability to do the things we can do i.e. a few more rounds of cell division and you get us.
But Tyson's perspective on the topic is enlightening in terms of imagination.
Thanks for the video.
Gotta vamoose.
