Both saccadic eye movements and sensory memory are necessary for the conscious registering of the animal's movement. Saccadic eye movements allow the eyes to quickly move and refocus on the new location of the animal, while sensory memory briefly stores the visual information long enough for the brain to process it and create a conscious perception of the movement.
