Plot twist : I'm a dichromat too, and the tiger is perfectly camouflaged in both pictures to my eyes. Until this post started doing the rounds I had no idea tigers weren't brilliantly camouflaged to most humans.

Same here, the pictures OP posted look identical.

Orange, red, green, brown, it's all the same shit.

I like to call it "mess" when faced with naming any of the colours in that kind of photo!

Do you have protanopia or deuteranopia?

I have protanopia and didn’t realize the pictures were meant to be different at first lol

The first time I saw this image was on r/colorblind and I had the same confusion.

Damn, you guys are missing out all the r/OneOrangeBraincell memes.

But at least you haven't become tiger food ... yet.

I cannot see a difference, am I supposed to? I can never tell if these kind of things are meant to be pranks or not
