How eye saccades enable mammals to simultaneously chase prey and navigate through complex environments

How do predators use their vision to both navigate through the terrain while tracking prey running for its life? Pursuing prey through a complex environment is a major challenge for the visual system, as not only does the prey constantly change direction, sometimes in the opposite direction to the pursuer, but running after something evokes self-induced motion-blur that degrades vision. How do predators use their vision to both navigate through the terrain while tracking prey running for its life?
