A very few Of the lower animals,
like some OF the monkeys, seem to
possess the true blnocular vision; that
Is, they center both eyes on the same
object at the same time and blend the
two images into one. The dog is not
one Of these, in spite Of the forward
position Of its eyes; It is but a single
eye that the dog centers upon the OBJ
