Cows are NOT colorblind to red. Cows can distinguish yellow, orange, and red, much better than blue, grey, and green. Calves are able to see the difference between red and (blue or green), but have limited ability to discriminate between blue and green. In Spain, where bullfighting is a sport, the matadore waves a red cape and the bull charges. It is the motion, the waving of the cape that makes the bull charge, not the color. Some say the cape is red because it makes it easier for specators to see the bullfighter from the stands. In studies testing colored light, the cows aproached the handler more quickly in red light.
