What animal shouldn't you look in the eye?

You should not look in the eyes of most wild animals, especially predators or large herbivores like bears, big cats (lions, leopards), wild boars, elephants, and even bulls, as a direct stare signals aggression, a challenge, or a threat, which can provoke an attack, but with some domestic animals like dogs and cats, averted gaze or slow blinks signal trust. For dangerous wild animals, you should avoid eye contact entirely and observe their behavior from a safe distance or use peripheral vision to monitor them.

What animal is fully blind?

Naturally blind animals, often adapted to lightless environments like caves or deep seas, include the Olm salamander, Mexican tetra, Kauaʻi cave wolf spider, naked mole-rat, and star-nosed mole, relying instead on enhanced senses like touch, vibration, smell, and echolocation for survival, with some invertebrates like eyeless shrimp and Hydra lacking eyes entirely.
 

Can sharks see well?

Yes, sharks have very good eyesight, especially in low light, with excellent night vision due to a reflective eye layer (tapetum lucidum) that amplifies light, similar to cats.
