No animal uses "infrared" to catch prey. Infrared is a man-made mechanical device to locate objects in darkness - that's a simplistic explanation, the actual process is more complicated.

How does Plato theory of ideal forms differ from Aristotle theory of forms?

Plato’s theory of ideal forms is that the objects we perceive are simply reflections of the ideal forms, they are but shadows, and reality is found in the form itself.

He rejected the idea that Plato had on there being a higher plane in which objects existed in a true form.for credibility: this was written by a 14 year old in the 9th grade. it was a question i had on an assignment for world history. i got my information from a textbook, i cant link it, sorry :(
