eh? I hope you don't mean that animals do not have depth perception... of course they do, or your lion would not be able to pounce on their dinner. All two -eyed critters have depth perception.
What animals don't have is an understanding of differentiation of textures... they see the grass the tree shrubs and their dinner hiding motionless out in the open as all the same, they see the fur ruffling in the breeze but don't recognise/ distinguish that as being "different" from the rustling of the surrounding grass or leaves.
They do, however, understand movement (and if it moves, pounce on it).
Haven't you ever wondered why a critter will take to hiding motionless face in in a bush, leaving their bum exposed and the predator just walks on by?

Even duct tape can't fix stupid... but it can muffle the sound.
