Blind Kitty Jack

Blind animals include the blind cave fish and cave crickets, the Texas salamander, blind flatworms, eyeless shrimp, eyeless fish, cave beetles, cave crayfish, and some bristletails, isopods and copepods.
Some animals live only in caves - they are called troglobites (meaning 'cave dwellers'). These animals are adapted to life in the dark.
Blindness at birth serves to preserve the young who are dependent on their parents. (If they could see, they could wander off.) Rabbits are born with eyes and ears closed, totally helpless. Humans have very poor vision at birth as well.
