Best Answer

Animals hunt by smelling - Some animals have a very evolved sense of smell, so they can smell their tracks, scent, trail, etc.

Animals hunt by feeling and hearing - Sightless animals or poor visioned animals that do not use their eyes often, such as bats, use feelers (usually antennae on insects) or echolocation (where they can tell distance from hearing the echo of a sound wave they send out) to hunt.

Some animals can hunt with special tools they are equipped with, animals like sharks can detect electrical signals underwater to find prey. Animals like snakes can find prey with the help of heat sensors.

Cats typically use a combination of stalking, chasing, and pouncing techniques to hunt prey. Their keen senses of sight, hearing, and smell help them locate potential targets, and their agility and speed allow them to effectively capture their prey. Once caught, cats use their sharp teeth and claws to deliver a swift and lethal bite to the neck area.

Outdoor cats hunt mice through sight and scent. When a cat senses a mouse, the cat hunches down and stalks it slowly, pouncing on it when it is close enough.

Wild or feral dogs tend to hunt in packs. A domesticated dog may chase and worry sheep, or fight with another dog, if not under the control of the owner.
