Are reindeer color blind?
Elk can see colors as research has that they have cones - the essential part of the eye used for seeing color. However, they have much fewer cones than humans do, which means they see colors of a different wavelength better. They see colors more toward the violet end of the spectrum better. I suggest not wearing blue when you are trying to get close to an elk.

Cones in the eye allow us to see color. They are photoreceptor cells that are sensitive to different wavelengths of light, enabling us to distinguish between and perceive different colors in our environment.
What colors can birds see?
Birds can see a wider range of colors than humans due to having four types of cones in their eyes compared to our three. They are able to see ultraviolet light, which is outside the visible spectrum for humans, allowing them to perceive more colors and patterns in their environment. This enhanced color vision is important for tasks such as foraging for food, attracting mates, and navigating their surroundings.
