Color of cougar eyes when spot lighted

[HighlandLofts]

A friend had two sheep killed recently, he has seen a set of eyes at night with a light. He said they were blueish in color.
Could they have been a cougar?

In my extremely limited one time moment of panic while spotlighting one the eyes were green/yellow

[Scruffy]

yellow as far as I know

[Bullkllr]

I haven't seen enough to be at all certain with cougars, but I do know that multiple deer in a field at night can show different colors of eye shine from white to yellowish/greenish to reddish.

[ASHQUACK]

Greenish/blue

Probably depends what kind of light you shine at em.
Are you using an old school mag light.
Fancy LED light.

[ASHQUACK]

Shine your light at your or your neighbors cat. Same thing.

Orange

At 45:30 in this interview, the hiker said he saw multiple cougars at night while hiking the PCT and their eyes glowed red.

The one I hit with a flashlight as It was following me into my elk hunting spot reflected yellow.   Might be different with LED versus other wavelengths. My light was old school

Cougars are generally yellow to red, deer and elk white/ blue ish. this can vary with any animal with quite a few factors. I’ve seen 3 or 4 cougars in the dark, they were all very orange eye color and I could verify they were indeed cougars.

African Lion's eyes are yellow in a spotlight so I'd imagine that Mountain Lion's are too.
