Do animals have a sense of direction? How do they find their way home? Learn about animal navigation and how different creatures use their senses to get around.
Here are the points to be added that I anticipated or predicted that they should happen as proof or implied consequences of my animal navigation model. The posting in the website is Introduction to my Ideas from Sept 2013 – “Gravity and Gyro effects are the basis of animal navigation, by Antonio Nafarrate“. Appendix. 1) From a paper by…

Our associate editor Antonio Nafarrate has brought this paper to my attention. “Does the Earth’s magnetic Field serve as a reference alignment for the Honeybee waggle dance” (Dec 2014) by Professor Gerhard Gries et al. This paper is fascinating as it uses the famous waggle dance performed inside the hive by the foragers to show…
Article in Nature volume 18 number 4 April 2015 This is a very important piece of work which begins to bring us to an understanding how a sense of direction works and which is NOT magnetic based. We at animalnav.org know that this “sense of direction” must be crucial for navigation so Simon Raggett’s (one…
A little navigational help from animals. Tristam Gooley, who is one of our heroes, and a brilliant natural navigator have posted this fascinating link to his web site. You should follow this and delve into his other insights too as surely animals use many of the same clues as the ones that Tristan points out:…
Simon Raggett (one of our editors) has sent us this fascinating link discussing the origin of life and the hidden role of Quantum Criticality: https://medium.com/the-physics-arxiv-blog/the-origin-of-life-and-the-hidden-role-of-quantum-criticality-ca4707924552 as he says: This might be thought to have possible implications for links between organisms and surrounding electromagnetic fields.
