Bats can see extremely well, and they have a wing up on humans at night, when they hunt for insects. Bats use extremely precise echolocation to figure out how far away an insect is, the size of the insect, and the direction the insect is heading. They are so precise that they can avoid obstacles as small as a human hair.
