If you’re good at spotting things quickly, you might want to put that skill to the test in a real-life challenge on Reddit.
One user has posted an optical illusion to the r/FindTheSniper feed, where the task is to spot a hidden white dog in a snowy forest scene.
The image shows a winter wonderland, complete with snow-covered trees, and your job is to see if you can find the well-camouflaged dog somewhere in the picture.
At first glance, it looks nearly impossible to spot the white dog blending into the snow. Its fur matches the snowy landscape so well that it’s tricky to find.
But if you’re up for the challenge, the task is to spot the pooch within 20 seconds or less.
Take a look and see if you can find the dog:

Having trouble? Here’s a hint for you.
Although the dog’s white fur makes it blend into the snow, you should focus on its ears, nose, and eyes to help locate it.
If you’re still stuck, try looking towards the middle of the picture.
There it is! You can see its little ears sticking up as it moves through the forest.
Now, if that one was a bit too easy, let’s see if you’re up for something a bit harder.
In the same ‘FindTheSniper’ thread, another user shared an image of a snake hidden in the woods, camouflaged just as well as the dog.
“Find the copperhead,” reads the caption, and the user explains: “Tossed this little guy out into the woods after I stumbled on him during some landscaping at the house.”
“PSA: don’t kill copperheads, they’re just vibing. Politely relocate them; they appreciate not being turned into ‘snake bites.'”
Alright, let’s see if you can find the snake hidden in this one:
This one is a bit more challenging.Reddit
A copperhead snake, which is venomous and common in North American forests, is hidden in the image.
Its reddish-brown, patterned scales make it especially hard to spot in the leaf-covered ground.
People were struggling with this one, with one user saying: “Oh! There it– nope. Oh! It’s th– nope. Honestly it’s crazy how effective camouflage is.”
For those who managed to find the snake, one experienced ‘snake spotter’ pointed out that the copperhead is hiding in the ‘bottom left-hand corner’ of the image.
“But you gotta keep your eyes sharp! He’s almost completely hidden!” they added.
Others noted that zooming in makes it easier to see the snake, with one user writing: “Thank you ZOOM, if it wasn’t for you, I wouldn’t have been able to spot the snake. My actual eyes; take note.”
