"When you take photos of animals, the red eye effect can be quite 
different. Animals have a reflective layer in the back of their eyes 
behind the retina called the tapetum. This layer enhances their night 
vision. The colour of the tapetum gives you blue, green, yellow, or 
white eye effect. With animals, the effect can have place even when the 
ambient light is sufficient to prevent it in humans."
