Nature developes camouflage over million of years.
Humans: i want to see it at nightYou aren’t supposed to be hunting them at night.

You can get a small high-frequency whistle you can attach on the front of the car that should scare them away. It is outside audible range and supposedly has lowered the amount of incidents from a test phase our local elder care conducted when they placed them on all their cars.
I used a deer whistle for years. Very effective in my non-scientific opinion.
You also shouldn’t be hunting them with your car
I’m not hunting them, my car is though.
These self driving cars are getting out of hand.
is a wolf scared of a deer after hunting down one??
It might be if it had to pay higher insurance rates afterward.
I haven’t seen them in production yet, but for years I’ve heard of the idea of infrared detection in car systems to see warm bodies better at night on a screen or heads up display. There was also the idea of using that along with IR lighting and road markings to light up the road better. Like having high beams on without blinding other drivers, something that is far too common these days.
I hit one years ago going 70 on the interstate at night. It totaled my car.
Hey, that just happened to me! High five!
I doubt that the gene would be successful in the wild, given it would make it harder for the deer to hide from predators.
Give the deer a bright orange glow and then jam some deer genes into their predators so they have a harder time seeing that color. Close the loop by taking a selection of those predators’ features and distributing them at random in the glowing fish population.
“jam some deer genes”. I don’t know if that would work, but they definitely have to film it.
Rule 34.
What if we gave them fur that glows under UV light? And then modify our headlights to give off just a little UV. Then when the light hits their fur, they glow!
Most predators don’t have UV flashlights, so this should be a viable alternative.We’d probably end up with a situation where wild deer don’t have the gene and city deer do, excepting any cross-breeding.
Unless predators have fluorescent light it shouldn’t be a problem, it’s not bioluminescence.
Ever had glofish? They look much brighter under a blacklight, but they’re still noticably colorful even under natural sunlight, in a way that the unmodified zebra danios (the original fish) are not
Yeah… All those predators…like … Hmmm. Yeah. Looks like cars kill more deer then predators there bud.
Except that the reintroduced Canadian wolves into yellowstone proves that one dead wrong.
