It’s healthy to test your brain with daily brainteasers and optical illusions.
In this case, people are finding out whether they have X-ray vision – or even the ability to survive in the wilderness. They just have to do one simple thing – find the venomous creature slithering in the grass in this viral photo.
The snap, which captured attention online, was shared on the subreddit Find The Sniper by u/bluehangover. Reddit users were tasked with finding the snake in under 30 seconds – can you spot it?

Admittedly, many people couldn’t as the creature was almost unnoticeable among the greenery as they took to the comments to confess they were stumped. One user joked: “Yeah my a** ain’t surviving the wild.”
Another user said: “I had enlarged the picture and was moving it all around. Trying to see if I could find the snake, and I got more nervous with each move, So I finally just stopped. Lol.”
The elusive snake, notorious for its bulky frame, distinct triangular head, and tendency to make a racket when disturbed, is incredibly difficult to detect in the puzzle without possessing X-ray vision.

The image shows grass in various hues of green, interspersed with soil. There are also spots where the grass is dead, clearly crying out for some TLC from a gardener.
It’s easy to overlook the snake if you don’t give full attention to the challenge. Here’s a hint: the colour of the snake’s scales could be mistaken for grass.
If you need another clue, take a closer look towards the left of the photograph. The rattlesnake almost perfectly blends in with a layer of dead grass on the left side of the image.
