The green image of the tiger is terrifying. You wouldn't see it until it's eyes or teeth were baring down on you in a lush green forest. Thankfully humans weren't it's main prey and therefore it likely evolved to appear orange instead...

Umm, I've met tigers.

You need to explain to them that we're not prey, but they haven't figured it out yet.

I think the key word is "main".

I'm colorblind and the images are nearly identical. Good thing I'm not in tiger habitats very often.

Same. Didn't even realise they were different images until after I read the text.
