Infrared: Snake Hunt

The video explains how pit vipers, despite being in near total darkness, can hunt with precision using infrared sensors in their snouts. These sensors detect thermal radiation emitted by warm-blooded animals, allowing the snake to accurately target its prey. Unlike pit vipers, humans cannot develop this ability due to being warm-blooded, which would cause interference from their own body heat.
