Bear and color

[MnFn]

Do bear see color?
Specifically, would a red color stand out amongst green and brown vegetation?

[Etter]

Yes, bears see similarly to humans.

Great motion detection, great night vision, and can see colors.  I wear black in my blinds when I hunt them, or gray against trees.

That's good to know. I always thought bears saw pretty much like deer.

[Etter]

Being predators by nature, they dont seem to be as "on their game" as deer are but they sure can be.

The bear in my avatar was shot at 7 yards, I had a bright orange vest on and he looked right at me 4 times before I shot him. He knew I was there right from the start and never seemed to care! I never moved till he started leave, then it was to late for him!!!

Good to know.
