Yes, but he has excellent camouflage.

The fellow is indeed camouflaged very well with his coat markings. Some times a little trick of using perifial vision of not looking directly but to look to the side will locate such a fellow as the Snow Leopard. It is the better light gathering area of our vision that nature provides to us in enemy search.
Our ancients were very vulnerable with only stone or pointed sticks as lances for protection against such preditors. I only suppose nature did wish for us to survive at least to the present time.

During night operations it is very effective. Of course, this was before electronics. We also used red light to condition our eyes. |

J.J.
It would appear in the light of reality, we have both shared the similar training in past. The reasoning provided of this sight enhancement is the design of our eyes being the retina and two types of photoreceptors being Rods and Cones with rods being more sensitive to light.
Also as it would be, we had the similar issues you experienced with no electronic vision aids that now exist. Our manner of coping was to dim out instrument lighting to keep the eyes adjusted to night sight. As an enhancement,we did have eye glasses in the light yellow colour that did help in low light levels.
