Amazing Creatures That Thrive Despite Being Handicapped

I can’t seem to imagine a pitch black world or a silent world like space, and I can’t help but wonder how other creatures, who are blind or deaf, manage to survive and even manage to thrive despite their handicap. There’s a creature that can also survive without oxygen.

If there’s a word that can fully describe them, the word would be “extraordinary”, because they truly are.

Intelligent Living has listed some of the creatures that are either blind or deaf, as well as their abilities that make up for their handicaps.

See them over at the site.

They aren't "handicapped". They have evolved those traits due to stimuli in their environment...for example...some don't "need" eyes...so why bother expending energy on having them.
