    I've called coyotes within 15 yards while rotating a red beam in the pitch blackness.

    I use a green beamed laser designator and raccoons, deer, and a fox could care less. Dunno about yotes with green, but the youtube has em.

    Good advise to check u tube. Found info ... Red LED flood light seems to be good choice. Because 22 rifle will be used and 50 yards or less , will advise him to pick up a basic Red/green dot optic. Will start with that and 'see' how that works. thx

    red seems to be the best choice, even if just for the fact that it's easier on our night vision.

    And the fact that a lot of animals, dogs and deer too, are color blind and don't actually see red. They see further into the Ultraviolet than we do, so have better night vision, they are also more acutely aware of motion.
