How sharp are your eyes and mind? Only a few people will be able to spot the snake among the tortoises in under 17 seconds.
The illustration, drawn by a Hungarian artist named Gergely Dudas, shows a large group of tortoises standing in a field. However, among them is also a snake hiding in plain sight. While the reptile is distinguishable by the fact that it is the only animal without a shell in the drawing, it is not that simple to spot.
However, those with good eyes and attention to detail will be able to find it fairly quickly.
There are numerous techniques used in this drawing to make the brainteaser seem like an extreme challenge. One of the main tricks is the amount of green used in the image – not only are the tortoises and snake green, but you also have the grass, leaves, and the surroundings making the challenge harder.
The high number of tortoises also makes it difficult to look for the snake, with some being rather distracting, including one with a top hat, and another with a broad grin.

The reptile is hidden on the left-hand side of the drawing, but what makes it difficult is that it is poking its head out from behind the shell of a nearby tortoise.
