Tigers would be way better if they were green. It would make them almost invisible.
Why didn't you post a tiger to make your point?
>>5050842Tigers sebaceous glands secrete a compound that encourages moss to grow on its back?I do know that moss LOVES growing on milky soil.https://www.plantedtank.net/threads/moss-milkshakes.2882/
>>5050842We already removed their stripes
Sea Turtles would have all of their beach troubles gone if they were viviparous and gave life birth. No more cute baby turtles eaten by skyrats and crabs and no more turd world poachers killing nesting mothers on beaches and digging up eggs, just straight to the ocean.
>>5050852The moss theory works with sloths.
>>5050842give squirrels opposable thumbs
>>5050842Grizzly bears would be even more awesome if they could turn invisible
The overwhelming majority of mammals see the world as orange/yellow/brown. In fact, they don't see green at all.
>>5050881>all your life revolves around finding, eating, and hiding in green stuff>unable to see greenAnimals are so dumb
>>5050869That's the Grinch.
>>5050914Haha you're right.
>>5050842All hornless animals would be improved with horns
>>5050842snails need like a little helmet they can use as a closed door for their shells so bugs cant eat them
>>5050881Incorrect, most mammals can't see orange but can see shades of blue and yellow. Because mammals can't produce green pigment, some (like tigers) evolve to be orange instead because it's the closest match to them. Deer and wild pigs see tigers as green just like how tigers see themselves as green. Primates, on the other hand, can see shades of red unlike most mammals and birds can see in ultraviolet. Sambar deer will often feed alongside monkeys and peafowl because they can spot tigers better as they can see orange and their alarm calls alert the deer.

>>5051114This.And when tigers are in an area with enemies/competitors (hyenas) that see full color they look like this.
>>5050842
>>5051127Hyenas aren’t competitors with tigers to any significant extent. The only hyenas in India are solitary and small compared to spotted hyenas
>>5050862What if we bred those to have thick fur and introduced them to arctic, would they be any competition to polar bears?
>>5051114Bigfoot is this but for humans
>>5051229They would starve to death because there’s no large terrestrial prey on the sea ice where polar bears live
>>5051247Tigers are great swimmers. The fur would need further improvement to handle freezing water temperatures but I believe it is possible.
>>5051112Deer can also see ultraviolet."The results regarding the UV capabilities of deer were equally fascinating. Our results confirmed that, unlike humans, deer lack a UV filter in their eye. In humans, this filter blocks about 99 percent of damaging UV light from entering the eye. It also functions much like a pair of yellow shooting glasses and allows us to focus more sharply on fine detail. The trade-off is a loss of sensitivity to short wavelength colors, especially in the UV spectrum. Because deer do not have a UV filter, they see much better in the UV spectrum but lack the ability to see fine detail. This helps explain why deer often move their head from side to side when they encounter a hunter."https://deerassociation.com/hunters-guide-deer-vision/Humans can see UV too when the lens of the eye is removed. But because we live far longer than deer we evolved a lens that blocks UV from entering the eye. Otherwise we would all be going blind in our early 20's."Subjects with aphakia are missing a lens, so UVA light can reach the retina and excite the visual opsins; this expands the visible range and may also lead to cyanopsia."https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Visible_spectrum
>>5050842Tigers mainly prey on ungulates and boars who are dichromats. It's really only primates and birds who can easily spot them in foliage.
>>5051242But he's black
Sea Scorpions, I miss them dearly.
>>5051745Excuse me, wrong thread.
>>5050881False
I want them to be better than technology. I am sad that my cat cannot defeat the PIR light sensor we have.
