Magnetoreception molecule found in the eyes of dogs and primates

Dog-like carnivores and some primate species may have a magnetic compass similar to that of birds.

Certain photoreceptors in the eyes of dogs and macaques contain the molecule cryptochrome 1, which could act as a magnetic field detector. (photos: Leo Peichl)
