i don't think they have "5" senses. Thomas Nagel wrote a philosophical paper "What's It Like to Be a Bat?". think about it for a while! then tell me how good your echolocation is! while people seem to perceive the world around them primarily through vision.* spider vision is very poor. vibration & odor inform their image of the world much more. they perceive both w/ their setae, what most people would call hair. while technically inaccurate, to say that Spiders see the world w/ their hair is not untrue. *There is a popular school of thought (informed by historical texts) that medieval man (woman, child, eunich) smelled the world to a greater extent & saw it less. so, what is it like to be a bat?
