In a recent video, the TikTok account Illusion Videos (@illusionwrld) shared an image of a snow leopard, challenging their followers to quickly find the cat.
“I bet you can’t find the hidden snow leopard in this photo in less than 10 seconds,” the account captioned the video.
“90% tried and failed,” the account stated.
Several enthusiastic TikTok users rushed to the comments section of the video to share how quickly they found the cat.
“I found it in 4 seconds,” said one person.
“Found it in 5 seconds,” another user wrote.
“I found 1.6,” a third user commented, while another hinted at where to find it by saying “on a rock.”
Not all viewers were successful, with one person writing: “Could not find man. But I followed you.”
For those struggling to find the furry bobcat, focus on the rocks in the middle of the photo.
There you can find a secret snow leopard.
The mind-bending puzzle is made even more difficult by the snow leopard’s natural ability to blend into its surroundings.
The World Wide Fund for Nature detailed “the animals’ long fur and less distinctive markings that change shape with body movements, making snow leopards difficult to recognize from other big cats such as tigers, leopards, etc. and jaguars, which have more distinctive markings.
Snow leopards are considered a vulnerable species.
WWF has estimated that only 4,000 of the spectacular cats remain in the wild, although the exact number is unknown.
