Can you spot the leopard hiding in the Indian forest?

A photographer in India has shared an image from Rajaji National Park, asking followers if they can spot the leopard hiding in the forest.

“Spot the Leopard in this frame if you can,” Trikansh Sharma tweeted this week.

It’s not a difficult quiz for those with a keen eye, but forest growth or debris might play tricks on the imagination. (The answer is provided in the link at the bottom of this post.)

“I can see a tiger and a leopard in this frame,” one follower expressed, only to later acknowledge that what he thought was a tiger was merely a clump of leaves.

Another follower complained that it was difficult to spot the leopard in “such a low-resolution image,” only to be informed by Sharma that others had easily located the leopard.

Rajaji National Park, also known as Rajaji National Tiger Reserve, is home to about 250 leopards.

While leopard sightings are considered rare and exciting, the expansive park, at the foothills of the Himalayas, is most famous for its wild elephant population.

Can you spot the leopard hiding at the Oakland Zoo?

The Oakland Zoo has posted an image to Facebook asking followers if they can spot its camouflaged male leopard.

The Oakland Zoo recently acquired a female leopard in the hope that she will develop a “love connection” with its resident male.

Their names are Emma and Lucha, and an update on their progress is forthcoming.

In a tease to this effect, the zoo on Friday shared an image of a camouflaged Lucha, an 11-year-old male, and stated to followers:

“Lucha the leopard is spotted… but can you spot him in this pic?”

Many in the comments section claimed to have spotted Lucha at first or second glance.

But for others it took a while, perhaps, because there’s a spot in middle of the image that looks as though it could be hiding Lucha.

Some used the comment section to inquire further about the courtship between Emma and Lucha.

The most likely hiding place, of course, is the base of the tree:
