Now let us know what exactly being colorblind has to do with hunting? After all knowing and identifying your target is a must before shooting at it...

I'm trying to see if being color blind gives an advantage or disadvantage when deer hunting. The theory is that color blindness has stuck around and not disappeared in humans because it can give advantages when doing some tasks. In monkeys, ones who have color blindness are able to find more fruits and camouflaged insects than monkeys with normal color vision. I'm trying to see if this applies to humans, except with deer since we don't exactly try to find fruits and insects in the jungle.

I think that is the exact opposite. Having color vision would give a selective advantage in that it would enable arboreal primates the ability to readily recognize ripe fruits.

Generally, predators (and their prey) have visual systems attuned to recognize movement rather than color. If a mouse sits still, a cat cannot "see" it. But when the mouse moves, the cat's visual system "sees" it immediately.

If a hunter wears como, he/she is not readily visible to a deer until he/she moves. Blue is detectable by deer. (Don't wear blue jeans while hunting.) they also see hunter orange as a bright shade of gray, whereas pink does not show up very well for a deer. It has been suggested, because of this, that hunters wear pink instead of hunter orange. This idea has not received a lot of supprt.
