Animals are pretty clever

There was the ape(?) 🦧 or monkey 🐒 that
learned how to use a stick to capture bugs
out of a hole in a tree (IIRC)

no doubt the World Economic Forum is jealous...

Horses 🐴🐴 CAN see color BUT

AI Overview

Yes, horses can see color, but their color vision is different from humans. Horses are dichromats, meaning they have two types of cone cells in their eyes, allowing them to see blues and yellows.

Humans, on the other hand, are trichromats with three types of cone cells, enabling them to see a wider spectrum of colors, including reds and greens.

Dichromatic Vision:

Horses can distinguish between blue and yellow, but they cannot differentiate between red and green.

Color Perception:

For horses, colors like red and green appear as shades of gray or brown.

Yellow:

Horses are most likely to see yellow well.

Red-Green Color Blindness:

In essence, horses have a form of red-green color blindness according to UC Davis.

Practical Implications:

This difference in color vision can be important when considering how horses perceive their environment. For example, they may react differently to objects or obstacles depending on their color.
