You have 20/20 vision if you can spot the leopard sneakily lurking in this optical illusion
YOU might have perfect vision if you can spot the leopard that’s sneakily lurking in this optical illusion.
While known as a high-speed hunter, the big cat is proving its chops as a master of disguise in an image that is leaving even the most eagle-eyed scratching their heads.
At first, all you might see is a ditch covered in dirt alongside a lone tree, leaving not much to look at.
Even the person who snapped the image, wildlife photographer Hemant Dabi, admitted that he couldn’t spot the leopard himself.
Despite being just a few feet away from the animal in India, Dabi said that he had to keep an eye out for another leopard.
However, while looking closely at the photo, it’s revealed that Dabi wasn’t alone in the wilderness.
Somehow, a leopard managed to stay hidden among the clumps of dirt and rubble.
The photo stumped even the most accomplished puzzle solvers and the brain teaser easily went viral.
One illusion enthusiast shared the image to Twitter alongside the caption: “There’s a leopard in this photo by Hemant Dabi. Can you find it?”
It was revealed that the leopard camouflaged itself in the dirt – making it incredibly hard to find.
However, some boasted that they were able to solve the puzzle, pointing out the big cat lounging to the left of the tree trunk.
Nestled on top of lumps of dirt, the leopard uses its spots to disguise itself within the muck.
Although some savvy Twitter users claimed to have easily located the leopard, others still couldn’t solve it.
One wrote: “I would’ve just been attacked by the leopard. I can’t find it!”
Another said: “Someone please pm me the answer. I’m gonna go crazy if I stare at this dirt anymore.”
A third joked: “It’s right behind me, isn’t it? I don’t care, I’m not turning around.”
And a fourth quipped: “I really tried and I’m disappointed I looked in the comments to find the answer, as I’m not normally a cheetah…”
Dabi even told LADbible that he had trouble finding the creature.
“When I took this photo at that time he was giving alarm call on seeing another leopard.
“It was hard to see him.
“I have seen that place many times where he was and you won’t believe I was only seven feet away from him and I still couldn’t see him.
“He showed me when he waved his tail.”
Leopards live mostly across southern parts of Africa and in scattered communities across Asia, Pakistan, and Malaysia.
