NOVA dogs supersenses 603x452Monday, January 13 at 8 pm on KRCB TV in the North Bay. What is it like to be a dog? This question is now getting serious attention from scientists who study animal senses. Humans rely on smell, sight, taste, touch, and sound; other animals have super-powered versions of these senses, and a few have extra senses we don't have at all. This episode features a dog that seems to use smell to tell time. But it's not just the senses that are remarkable – it's the brains that process them. NOVA goes into the minds of animals to "see" the world in an entirely new way.
