Hunting flashlight need


As is known to me, some animal cannot recognize red light at night, so, I am looking for a red flashlight or other special-made hunting flashlights, do you guys have any suggestions? Any help will be appreciated. Please Help. Thanks !
I didn't find the right solution from the internet.

I'm an air gunner so that's where I mostly look at hunting info. Here's something from the forum I look at.
http://www.airgunnation.com/topic/night-vision-options/
Also You Tube has a lot of hunting videos and reviews on night shooting.

Or you can take your favorite light or headlamp and put red tape over it.
They sell the stuff at auto parts stores to fix tail light lenses.
The extent of my mighty hunting experience with a red headlamp amounts to over 100 kills.
Well, OK, they were mostly mice. And some rats.

When I was in the navy we used a flashlight with a red plastic lense in place of the clear one or we may have just added the red one over the clear one I don't remember which. No white lights allowed on the flight deck while underway, red only.

I think this could help you RightHunting. Maybe try to search some YouTube videos about equipment.

Do you need a flashlight, or a headlamp? I've got a Black Diamond Spot headlamp that has a red light mode. Only about $30 and it's water resistant as well.
