  That is my question, I know a lot of animals are color blind, I know most dogs can’t see the color red so I was wondering are bunnies color blind? do they see in black and white or do they see some colors?
  
  thx.

  I’ve always heard bunnies can see color, but just checked online and found the below article. it sounds like they have limited color sight, not as expanded as humans.
  
  this article is pretty interesting since it talks about rabbit vision and sight:
