Nocturnal animals usually hunt at night and it makes it hard to see so they use the asymmetrical hearing to hunt. They use these echoes to locate and identify the objects.

Are nocternal animals eye sight the only developed sense they have?
No, depending on what type of animal. Bats, for example, are nocturnal animals but they use echolocation, so it would count as the touch sense, and the smell sense.

Why don't owls sleep at night?
Because they are nocturnal much like other nocturnal animals they sleep in dark places all day (owls sleep in tree holes), owls have eyes adapted to seeing at night, if they were to fly during the day they would be blinded and subsequently crash into something and fall to their death. Plus their hearing is capable of hearing faint movements of mice/rats during the night.

Raccoons are primarily nocturnal animals. During the day the animals would normally be sleeping in their dens, not in trees. They would only climb trees to escape a predator or to obtain food.
Do all nocturnal animals eat meat?
They could both be Omnivore. (Meat & Veg eater). Possums, Rats and many more are Nocturnal animals. They might be Carnivores (Meat Eaters) because their prey might be sleeping, But if they are Herbivores, (Veg Eater) it might just be the way it is! This is just my opinion so it isn't the 101% correct answer, But this is quite reasonable. Happy to help. CHEERS!
