Funnily enough this is actually why tigers are orange. Since many of their prey animals have bad colour vision the orange that stands out to us actually looks the same as the foliage to them.
Yes! While colour names are admittedly arbitrary cultural artifacts, tigers are famously considered to be orange and black striped. The Wikipedia article where you appear to have gotten that image of a tiger from even describes them as such in the first paragraph.

That’s also why hunting clothes are orange camo. Invisible to the prey, clearly visible to the fellow hunter.
Also why your dog can’t see the red ball in the green grass.

Fascinating. Though quite a few of the tiles don’t look orange to me at all.
