Humans aren't very good at recognizing upside down faces - but then again, neither are fish. Researchers have discovered that the Japanese rice fish struggles to recognize inverted faces, just like humans. But the fish don't struggle recognizing faces when they're orientated the right way up, suggesting that these fish developed a brain pathway for face recognition, just like humans have. Can you recongize who's face this is? Humans read the face as a whole, rather than look at parts of the face, which is why it's harder to recognize a face when it's upside-down Humans don't struggle with identifying objects, such as a sofa, not matter what way up they are.
