Fun fact.
Tigers appear orange to humans, but green to their prey like deer, boars and other ungulates. These animals are dichromats or red-green blind.
This provide a powerful natural camouflage for tigers against their prey.

This is why hunters can wear safety orange jackets!

Wearing Orange clothing while hunting may seem a little surprising!!
Wild boars, and several other mammals have dichromatic vision, they have 2 pigment cones to blend colors together instead of 3 like us.
They do not clearly identify the orange of the safety vests and this is why hunters can wear it without fear of being seen by their prey.
