A WILD leopard is camouflaged by grassy terrain in a visually challenging image, and viewers who can locate it within 15 seconds could have a high IQ.
The image serves as an optical illusion for most, because the leopard is almost nowhere to be found among the blades of tall grass, green bushes and hills.

The wild animal lurking somewhere in the bushes was captured by photographer Sourabh Bharti and acquired by Getty.
Leopards are native to more than 35 countries in Africa and are known as “loners,” according to the African Wildlife Foundation.
The optical illusion proves that this aspect of the beast is true, since only the one leopard is hidden inside.
Start the timer for 15 seconds and scan the optical illusion as fast as possible.
Did you find the leopard within the time limit?
If so, you might be someone with an incredibly high IQ.
If not, that’s okay too — take another long look at it.
Don’t worry if you still can’t find him — scroll to the bottom of the page to see where the leopard decided to lay in the bush.
Spotting animals in their natural habitat can be one of the most difficult optical illusion challenges.
They are expertly skilled at camouflaging themselves from predators or prey.
As the US Sun previously reported, only those with a hawk’s eye can locate a large potoo bird hidden within a tree’s branches.
The large potato originates from South America and is the largest type of potato.
It is also nocturnal, usually choosing places high in trees to forage and stalk prey.
It spends most of the day on tree stumps, blending in with its surroundings.
This is what makes the optical illusion so difficult, but if you can locate the bird within seven seconds, you could have better than 20/20 vision.

If you’re looking for other challenges to test your IQ, some other illusions don’t involve natural wildlife.
The American Sun covers an optical illusion that requires viewers to locate at least 15 faces in an abstract artwork.
Optical illusion professionals can also have a high IQ if they can spot a cat tucked between several skyscrapers.
