“Just why the mantis shrimp needs such a rarefied level of vision is unclear, although researchers suspect it is to do with food and sex.”
I would agree with those ideas; that’s really the two reasons I do pretty much anything.

"....have the most complex eyes in the animal kingdom. They can see in 12 primary colors, four times as many as humans, and can also detect different kinds of light polarization -- the direction of oscillation in light waves."Without further research, more complex than the hummingbird?
