Wild animals that depend on movement more than color to recognize prey have more rods than cones in the eye. If you don't have cones then you can't see color. If you have lots of rods you can see movement and in the dark easier.

∙ 9y agoThere are two types of light receptor cells in the eyes, cones and rods. Cones detect color, while rods detect light. In order to have excellent night vision, the eyes have lots of rods, at the expense of having very few cones. That is why cats are mostly colorblind.
