They don't hate it. This is a common misconception thanks to the Spanish bullfighters and the use of their red capes to intimidate the bull they are fighting in the ring. Bulls and all cattle in general are in fact dichromates, and only see in blues and yellows, so they only respond to movement, not colour. The red colour was used because it made it easier for the audience to see the bullfighter, not for the bull to see the bullfighter. It is also tradition in the Spanish culture to use red in festivities like this.
Bulls become enraged by the movement of the bullfighter's cape, not by its colour. The red colour is probably traditional because of the obvious connotations with blood.
Wearing red into a field containing a bull is no more dangerous that not doing so, but I wouldn't reccommend it.
No. Bulls, let alone all cattle, do not have red receptors that us humans do. Cattle lack a full spectrum of vision, thus are only able to see colours that include the primary colour receptors of blue and yellow. Grazing animals are most attuned to yellowish green and bluish purple hues, and can possibly see some green as well.
To say a bull hates the colour red is wrong. A Spanish fighting bull only responds to the rapid movement of the cape, not the colour of the cape. The colour of the cape is made so that the audience can see what the matador is doing and is only to excite the onlookers, not the bull himself.
They don't. This is a myth based on no scientific evidence whatsoever. Cows cannot see red or reddish hues. In a scenario with a bullfighter and a Spanish Fighting bull, the bull charges at the movement of the red cape, not at the color itself. The red cape is for the audience to see the action better.
Cows actually see yellowish and bluish hues, and have receptors in their eyes for these colours, but NOT red.
No, this is a myth.
It is really a myth that bulls hate the color red.The red cape is part of the costume the bull fighter where's. What really makes the bull charge is he the movement of the cape.
It is a common misconception that the color red angers bulls. Like most mammals, cattle are red-green color blind. The bull has been provoked by various other people by various means before the matador enters. It is also the movement of the matador's cape in bullfighting, and not the color, which provokes the bull's reaction.
bulls dont charge at red its just how the red keeps on moving that effects them ^^ That is false. It's not specifically the red. The cloth could be any color, it's simply the motion that entices them to charge.--THOUGHLESS21
Because bees see in ultraviolet & ultraviolet doesn't have red in it
a 12 guage double o buck or a 7mm all just depends on how frisky you are
The colour hatecan be red, black or grey.
Bulls react to erratic movements of objects, not their color.
Red

There is no colour on the visible colour spectrum that any bull hates. Bulls are only attracted to movement, not colour.
Generally red.
It doesn't, that is just a myth. The reason they chase the rag they have is because of the rapid movement, if someone flailed a weird rag thing in your face what would you do? I'm sure you wouldn't be too happy, it has nothing to do with the color and everything to do with them annoying the bull. It's kind of unfair.
yes, they indeed hate the colour red. as said in the comedy TV series, "QI" they confirmed the fact that robins indeed, hate the colour red. when i say "name an animal that hates the colour red" you would probably think the bull, but no, bulls hate the movement of the colour not the actual colour while robins, just hate the sight of it and you could possibly even die if you wear red while robins are around.
no. the bull follows movement, not colour
red
