Feral pigs (like all pigs) have dichromatic vision. Their eyes have cones sensitive to wavelengths in the blue-green portion of the spectrum, but it is unclear whether this translates to color perception in the way we humans understand it. They do not seem to perceive contrast the same way that we do (although they DO perceive it) and only have depth perception within 15 degrees of either side of the snout. They have very sensitive peripheral vision that is particularly good at detecting lateral motion.

From a practical standpoint, this means that you are essentially invisible to a feral pig if you are wearing clothing of the same tonal value (regardless of color) as your surroundings and do not move laterally relative to the pig's head.
