Perfectly camouflaged snake leaves the internet baffled after hiding among foliage – but can you spot it?

Someone else commented: “I don’t see any snake.” Most read in THE SUN PRESSING TIME Boris Johnson to hold major press conference TODAY from Downing Street VACCWARD STEP Britain could face ‘firebreak’ lockdown at October half-term as 'last resort' MOTORWAY MAYHEM Police chase ends in motorway crash - leaving cop with serious injuries 'WON'T DUCK TOUGH DECISIONS' PM to warn NHS will NEVER recover from Covid without tax rises SLASH ATTACK Schoolgirl, 14, stabbed in the neck by woman in horror broad daylight attack BEAST RELEASED Child killer Colin Pitchfork walks yards from a school after prison release The team finally conceded and shared the location of the hidden beast – in the middle tree branches at the top of the image.

In June social media users struggled to spot a leopard hiding in the Aravali Hills in Jaipur, in the western Rajasthan state in India. And in February, people were left baffled after being unable to spot a seven-foot python sizing up its prey on a family’s porch. The serpent looked ready to pounce while a terrified possum was curled up in a corner. Jam PressPlenty of social media users were left puzzled by the picture[/caption]
