Squint, it’ll be easier.
Also, while impressive, I find this, if taken in the context of a test about a species’ ability to camouflage, as not very realistic idk about other species but human eyes primarily work woth contrast and movement. So much so, that the moving dot that will be the leopard will be caught by our peripheral vision just as easily as a pink panther.
I was 99% convinced this was a trick but its actually there lmao
Idk, the kitty contrasts with the snow a lot, I was able to spot it immediately!
Relevant username!
Hint: it’s a rock leopard
Spoiler
The key to good camouflage is jpeg compression
I totally agree, the lack of pixels also contributes
The expression when the biped just won’t stop following you
Oh! I thought the post was just a joke. Thanks!
When you’re right, you’re right.
i will name my first born after you. thank you.
Baby rbesfe
well enough to fool me and feast on my body as it seems
Waiting for the day I see this pic and the leopard is edited out
Hint: Don’t look in the snow for something white.
I say it should be illegal to incorporate the word “snow” in the names of things that are not white.
Look up fire coral :D
They live in areas that are covered by snow for at least part of the year, such as the Himalayas, Tibet and parts of Central Asia and Mongolia. The animal itself can vary in colour from cream to grey or tan.
Also Greenland isn’t green…
Yes! We should have swapped the names for Iceland and Greenland so long ago!
Many animals that live in temperate climates change colors every year.
It’s not the case of this one. I just wanted to point that many do :)
(Now, seriously, gray and white are probably a very good disguise in places where the snow doesn’t take over everything all the time.)
Hmm… “Sometimes Snow <whatever>”?
[ insert here snow white live action joke ]
I think the pink ones didn’t fare so well in evolutionary terms.
do prey animals have all pixelated lo rez vision?
I do
am I the only one who can’t find it?
Okay I’m sure it’s much easier to recognise it irl with depth perception
And ESPECIALLY without JPG compression™Yeah, and the scale of the picture itself is hard to determine. You don’t know how big the thing you’re looking at is, so you don’t know if you’re supposed to see just a paw, the entire creature, etc.
Shoulda called it a rock leopard smh my head
Right under the snow patch on the top you can see the face.
Just beside the perfectly focused rock wall on the left, yes, it’s that blurred thing
It’s brown, right below the big snow bank at the top
It’s staring right at the camera between a jumble of compressed jpeg artifacts.
One of which seems to have eaten a quarter of its head. Very impressive how they have evolved to take advantage of JPEG compression for camouflage!
Right in the middle of the picture, near the rock. I had to zoom in to find it 😅
To be fair, the (apparently) huge icicles throw off the sense of scale.
Every time I see this image I swear it moves
It… sees you
