We’ve all had fun figuring out an optical illusion at some point in our lives, whether that be Troxler’s Effect or Oleg Shupliak’s self-portrait. But a new picture saw the whole internet scratching their heads in total confusion.
A picture of a snow leopard has been driving people crazy, as he is practically invisible, perfectly blending into a rocky landscape with some patches of snow lingering on its surface.
The picture of the incredibly well-hidden creature sparked Redditors to challenge themselves to spot the feline, as theinitial post on Redditasked people to “Spot the snow leopard and the time it took u [sic] to spot”.

Another person commented: “As soon as I stopped looking for a white animal. Very sneaky.”

Despite what you might think, snow leopards aren’t white, but pale gray or cream-colored with smoky gray or blurred black markings, allowing them to camouflage in their mountain habitat.
The medium-sized cats are native to the mountain ranges of Central and South Asia.
The picture, which has recently gone viral, resurfaced after being originallyposted on another Reddit forumfive years ago.

He told the publication: “I wanted this animal to be captured the way people have described it. They say that often they don’t see the ‘Shan’ but ‘Shan’ always sees them.”
He further explained: “I spent almost three years in search of this amazing cat. When I found it up and close to me, I was speechless.”
Some struggled to find the animal so much that they thought they needed to see an eye doctor
