Some creatures to turn into using Self Manipulation to get super senses.  Sea life not included yet.




Ultraviolet


Some animals can see ultraviolet light, which allows them to see important things humans can’t.




A few animals that can see ultraviolet light include:








Infrared


Some animals are able to see the infrared light other animals emit, which helps them find food.





Some animals that are able to see infrared light include:





Night Vision


Although humans can see in relatively dim light, many nocturnal animals can see very well in the dark.







Some animals that have exceptional night vision include:








Acuity


Several animals are able to see things in much greater detail than humans can.

Some animals with very good visual acuity include:











What Animals use radar?

Echolocation calls are typically based on the frequencies, intensity and the duration of the call. Animals use echolocation to navigate, avoid objects, and hunt for food. Echolocating animals include; Microchiroptera bats, whales, dolphins, Shrews, swiftlets, and oilbirds.




What animal has the best tracking ability?

Bear. According to the number of scent receptors, the bear has the best sense of smell of all terrestrial mammals. Black bears have been observed to travel 18 miles in a straight line to a food source, while grizzlies can find an elk carcass when it's underwater and polar bears can smell a seal through 3 feet of ice.










Which animal has strongest smell sense?

African elephants have strongest sense of smell in animal kingdom. LONDON: An elephant's sense of smell is legendary. But now, it has for the first time been scientifically proven that the African elephant has the most powerful sense of smell in the entire animal kingdom




In the entire animal kingdom, the duck-billed platypus, along with echidnas (ant-eaters), is the only mammal that can lay eggs. In addition to this unique ability, this animal has a highly developed sensor that can locate its prey (i.e., small invertebrates) through electroreception. Using their bill filled with sensors, the platypus can accurately detect the electrical impulses of their prey even in the deepest of waters.




While it is a widespread sense that everyone can feel the presence of fire, this tiny creature can smell and detect a burning pine tree that is ten miles away (as compared to an average human who can only detect at hundreds of feet)! There are three apparent reasons why the jewel beetles evolved to develop this character-first is mainly for food gathering, secondly is for ensuring the mating process, and third is securing the health of their eggs laid in pine trees.




Aside from being able to produce honey through the pollination of flowers, did you know that bees are incredibly hypersensitive that they can also sense the Earth’s magnetic field? Aside from that, they can also detect atmospheric electromagnetic waves that indicate thunderstorms. These abilities help bees in navigating flowers and determining whether a storm is approaching.




Spiders are one of the very few animals with a hyper-sensitivity to touch. By having massive numbers of hairs (known as trichobothria) on their legs, they are capable of detecting and tracing the origin of a vibration created by an object or another animal. As a result, hunting their prey becomes as easy as merely standing on their self-made web.
