Don’t think it will be easy, because you have less than 10 seconds to find the cat.
In the picture taken by Australian photographer Bobby-Jo Vial, everyone can see the snow-covered mountains.
But how long does it take you to spot an endangered big cat?
A natural predator is incredibly adept at hiding in plain sight thanks to its ability to remain camouflaged in its natural habitat.
As the snow does not cover the entire surface of the brown mountains, the leopard does not stand out so much.
Despite their name, snow leopards are not completely white.
The big cats have a thick beige coat with the legendary leopard pattern in dark brown.
If the mountains had been completely covered in snow when Vial took his photo, the leopard would have been easy to spot because its fur would have been visible against the white background.
But the patches of brown on the rocks against the snow in the puzzle mean that the mountains themselves look like leopards.
If you’re having a hard time spotting a snow leopard, there are a few tricks that can help.
Anyone can see male and female faces – but you have a high IQ and 20/20 vision if you can see three other people
First think about what would set it apart from its surroundings such as a long tail, legs and, as mentioned, fur – What doesn’t quite fit in with the landscape?
You will have to look carefully because the cat is not close to the camera.
Also try to reduce your search area to increase your chances of spotting a predator.
You can do this by dividing the image into smaller parts of equal size and searching them individually.

If that’s what got you going, try another cat-related puzzle.
This time you only have eight seconds to find the cat.
Instead of mountains, you need to find it among the clutter in a messy house.

Don’t mistake a dog on the floor for a cat who is much more adept at hiding in small places.
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.
If you find it difficult, focus on the central part of the picture – especially the umbrella stand.
Don’t forget to use the tricks you learned earlier to help you.
