^ Why Fish Vision Looks Like This ^

Fish and many prey animals use a fundamentally different visual system to represent the world around them. Having laterally pointed eyes means that fish do not fix both eyes on a subject as humans and other predators do.
Here I visualize the world through the eyes of a fish and explain why it looks like that using currently available data.
P.s. Since fish are an extremely diverse group, their vision is thought to be too. This is just one highly generalized depiction.

That’s beautiful. I have had fish for 50 years and just now searching to see if anyone else has noticed their intelligence. I have taught my fish behaviors and know they are much smarter than people think - especially large fish

No wonder I can never seem to sneak up on my fish with a net, no matter how how I try.

[@vanniyo8988]

predators carnivores visions tend to be more lateral even fish to help with depth perception.

Can fish see the water?
