SIT DOWN, take a deep breath, and then another, because you’re going to have to dig deep for this visual challenge.
In the history of optical illusions, this might be one of the hardest to crack.

Everyone can see the gnarled bark of the tree in this assignment, but something else is hiding in the picture.
We won’t give anything away if we tell you that this is a reptile hiding in plain sight.
Set your watch and start searching because you have a paltry seven seconds to find it before the bell rings and time runs out.
If you manage to find it in the allotted time, congratulations.
Your powers of observation are superb and you have 20/20 vision.
The setting is a forest in Kenya, and the trunk is covered in moss and lichen, giving it a green patina.
This makes the mission more difficult for the players in their search for this little one.
It is the tall chameleon or, to give it its zoological name, chamaeleo hoehnelii. They have evolved to blend in with the background, protecting them from predators.
Now, anyone with the slightest knowledge of these clever little reptiles will know that they can change their colors to match their surroundings.
In a dizzying puzzle, Mr. The chameleon does a great job of being almost impossible to see.
But we promise he’s there, just camouflaged in a stunning way, and he just loves it.
If you can’t see it, that’s enough for our cute reptile. This protects it from creatures further up the food chain.
Everyone sees gadgets in the trash – but you have 20/20 vision if you spy a cat sneaking around in 5 seconds
They are wonders of nature. There are over 200 identified species of chameleon in the wild.
Maybe a clue could help you in your search. Examine the bark for any changes in shape, anything that deviates from normal bark patterns.
Have you seen it yet? Need another tip? Split the image in half lengthwise and focus on the right side.
Advantages of brain teasers and optical illusions
Researchers have developed many tests to show how different regions of the brain respond to brain teasers and optical illusions. There are many advantages.
- They are not only entertaining, but shed light on how our brain interprets visual data.
- By regularly exercising your brain, you improve your ability to focus and observe details.
- Studies have shown that people who regularly face optical illusions and puzzles see great improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration and attention.
- Improved concentration and attention span can prevent cognitive decline in old age.
- Optical illusions can improve vision by allowing you to see fine print.
You may notice a small spot of yellow, this is one of the chameleon’s bulbous eyes.
If despite all the clues and tips you still can’t spot it, we can put you out of your misery.
His place is circled below. Better luck next time. But don’t let that stop you from trying again.

Can you spot the strange monkey? Credit: FreshersLive
In this puzzle, anyone can see a group of monkeys, but you have 20/20 vision if you can spot the odd one out in ten seconds or less.
Do you need a boost? Don’t forget that brain teasers can help build memory and prevent short-term memory loss.
But this test might send you bananas because it’s infuriating. The illustration shows rows of brown monkeys on a yellow background.
There are 36 primates in total, but which one is odd?
You will find the answer in their facial features. You don’t have much time so quickly scan their faces for differences.
Do you want a clue? Look at the second row below, maybe you’ll find what you’re looking for there.
Still feeling confused? The solution is circled in the picture below. Better luck next time.
