Leopards are so good at blending in to their environment that they are often difficult to spot in the wild, as is the case in this photo posted on Facebook by “Africa, this is why I live here.”
It isn’t an easy spot, as evidenced by the reactions by commenters on the Facebook post, a sampling we present here:
“I would have been so dead. It took me forever.”
“I’m amazed the photographer saw him.”

“Nope, don’t see it. Okay, on second look I saw it. But by this time, it’s too late.”
“Oh my goodness, what a good disguise!”
“Wow! Great camouflage!”
“Wow, I finally found it. I would have been his dinner, for sure.”
“It took me awhile.”
“I would have been eaten. Took me so long to find it.”
