No, bulls cannot see red. Since bulls are cattle, they only have two receptors, not three like us humans have. These two receptors are blue and yellow. Humans have red, blue and yellow receptors, and thus are able to see in full spectrum. Cattle cannot. Yellow-green and bluish-purple hues are the main hues that cattle are most attuned to.

Thus, in the Spanish bull fighting ring, the Spanish Fighting Bull is only responding to the quick rapid movement of the cape, not the colour.
