Birds have magnets in their heads that allow them to migrate the correct direction (fly south for warmer weather).

Pit vipers have hollows under their eyes that allow them to "see" changes in temperature (think heat vision goggles); makes for catching prey at night easier.

Some lizards have something called Jacobson's Organ; it allows for chemoreception (think pheromones). I believe it's responsible for sensing whether a lizard of the opposite sex is related to them somehow, in which case they won't mate with them.

All I can think of off the top of my head; I'm sure there's others

Some blind people teach themselves to make clicks they can use for sonar, so they can sense objects around them.

There was an experiment where they monitored the chemistry of plants or something. Someone slowly moved a pair of scissors towards the plant and then cut a piece off of it, and as soon as the cut was made there was a spike in activity was detected, as if it felt pain.

When the scissors were moved slowly towards the plant there was a slightly smaller spike during the approach, as if it was anicipating being cut again.

But how did it detect the scissors?

Well if you're running in a train that moves 100mph, then obviously you can.

>you know, plant stuff

Without a nervous system, all most plants can express is rage. They pump herbicides into the ground in an attempt to poison their neighbors and kill upstart children that might compete with the parent.

Nature is a bitch.

There are species that also send warnings to neighbors of the same species. Like "I'm being munched on by these bugs, look out!", and nearby plants of the same kind will ramp up their chemical defenses in response to the signal.

Sharks can detect minuscule voltage changes (I'm talking nervous system tiny here) from 820ft (250m) at most:

Assuming you mean biological senses that we've observed in living species, we have of course seen expanded versions of what humans have.
There are mantis shrimp that can see from deep in the infrared to deep in the ultra-violet spectrum, as well as detect polarized and circularly polarized light.
Hearing up to echolocation, of course.
The sense of smell possessed by many animals can hardly be compared to that possessed by humans. An average dog has more space proportionally in his brain dedicated to smell than humans do to sight. In some dogs, it approaches a tie in absolute terms. And the rhinarium means their sense of smell is nearly directional.

There are of course many examples of sensitivity to magnetic and electrical fields. (Some people say that humans have a vestigial magnetic sensitivity.)

I can't really think of any more than that. Electrical; magnetic; electro-magnetic; chemical; various forms of kinetic sensitivity: hearing, other vibration, touch (in its manifold forms), temperature. All senses need a force to analyze. Once you pick a force, from there it's all just different spins on the same thing.

>Sharks are attracted to low-frequency pulsed sounds, similar to those wounded or ill prey would emit. Most attractive sounds are in the frequency of 25 to 100 Hz. Some sharks are attracted to sound sources from distances as great as 250 m (820 ft.).
You've mixed up your stats. That's sound, not the electric sense.

Yeah, I know, but it's pretty crazy how sharks can pretty much feel your flesh twitching and locate you, if you are, say, buried on sand or just around the corner from a reef.

>> No.4678304

>>4677242
Thats not about sound, thats the odor of your blood, which is still amazing how far they can detect it from.
Also i think sharks are said they completed their evolunion.

From a philosophical perspective, so long as a being could evolve or be created with a psyche that is linked to a physical instrument for measuring a phenomenon, in a practical sense, anything could be a form of perception. If we confine the definition of "sense" to the capacity to receive information through physical stimulus and transport it to the mind (leaving "mind" as an a priori concept for convenience) for consideration and action through some form of agency, almost ANYTHING could be a sense, especially so depending on your definition of "mind."

The problem at this point is that we don't know how information is transferred or processed or intuited/imagined by the mind, or really what a mind is. We can do things like look at which structures in the brain light up when taking in various types of stimulus, or how cognition is affected by altering parts of the brain, but we can't say how sense works other than that it does. But theoretically, there's nothing particularly magical about it, and minds, human, animal, or even extraterrestrial, share a common definition of self-aware "understanding" and processing of empirical (ie. a posteriori) information. Thus, anything from pressure sensors, nociception, vision (broadly defined), olfaction, to sensing tremors/turbulence or temperature, to electromagnetic fields, magnetism, or even mechanically created/assisted forms of sense, are all possible.
