    No one colour is satisfactory as a protective factor for all conditions, however ‘United Nations’ blue
    came out as the most visible colour in the greatest variety of conditions, but can be affected by going darker when wet
    if made of an absorbent material. A range of high vis orange clothing was tested. It was good in most conditions, but
    there are circumstances where it might be confused with deer, especially in some light conditions. The outcomes of this
    project indicate that the wearing of colour that contrasts with the environment, on its own, is not sufficient. Rather,
    hunters need to modify a range of behaviours
    .
