Are great white sharks color blind?

Answer 1

Great White Sharks are not completely color blind, but their color vision is limited compared to humans. They possess cone cells in their eyes that allow them to detect some colors, but their vision is primarily adapted for detecting contrasts and movement in low light. This means they may perceive colors differently, likely favoring shades of blue and green, which are more prominent in their oceanic environment. Overall, their visual system is optimized for hunting rather than a broad palette of colors.
