'''Darkness''' is the absence of [[light]]. Humans have great difficulty seeing in partial darkness, though several other creatures do much better. It is entirely impossible to see in pure darkness, although some creatures, such as [[bat]]s which have a "sonar" system, can still "see" in such a case.
