Colour is an illusion, it’s a bandwidth of visible light within the spectrum. Colour does not exist in nature technically without the eye to perceive it, just another electromagnetic wave

Which is why different animals perceive color in different ways. I'd have to look for it but I think it's tigers that see green in a totally different way than people do.

Some prey animals see orange as green which is why tigers coats are so effective in a green jungle

A "Showerthought" is a simple term used to describe the thoughts that pop into your head while you're doing everyday things like taking a shower, driving, or just daydreaming. The best ones are thoughts that many people can relate to and they find something funny or interesting in regular stuff.
