In a Reddit post, user Various-Macaroon-774 challenged their fellow social media users to locate the dog in the garden scene.

The South Florida resident filled out their flower beds with a variety of tropical plants.

Keep your eyes peeled as you scan the colorful foliage for the German Shepherd.

Set your stopwatch and see if you can spot the canine in under 10 seconds.

While the large double doors and porch at the front of the house can be seen, we can reveal the pooch is enjoying some time in the garden.

To the left of the garden path is a bench strategically placed in the shade, however, the animal can be seen hiding from the sun in another spot.

If you need another hint, we suggest focusing your attention on the right side of the image.

Concentrate on the plants in the background of the shot, located closer to the home.

The large dog breed is enjoying some time out of the South Florida sun.

Just to the right of the palm tree, a furry body can be seen lying in the shadow of a bush.

Everyone can see the forest – but you have 20/20 vision & high IQ if you spot an owl lurking in the trees in 27 seconds

The palm leaves of the smaller tree provide the canine with the perfect shaded lounging spot.

We recommend looking for the animal's tell-tale fur coat in the shade.

The dog's stretched-out position makes it easier to identify against the greenery.

And if you're hoping to tease your brain even further, try to find the predator hiding in this wildlife shot.

A young leopard can barely be seen as it stalks its prey in this hillside scene.

Members of a Blue Sheep herd are oblivious to the danger nearby as they stare at the wildlife photographer who captured the image.

Behind them, the wildcat uses a camouflage technique to disguise itself against the rocky terrain.

If you need some guidance to find the animal, focus on the area just left of the large boulder.

Somewhere in this image a predator lurks, can you spot it in less than 30 seconds?

Scan your eyes across the rocky terrain of the steep hillside and see if you can spot the cub.

Focus your attention on the higher part of the slope and you may be able to spot the leopard.

Between the piles of rock and the barren plants, the head of the cat can be made out.

If you still haven't spotted the ferocious feline, we suggest scanning the smaller rocks in the image.

Benefits of brainteasers and optical illusions

Researchers have developed many tests to show how various brain regions react to brainteasers and optical illusions. There are many benefits.

  • They are not only entertaining, but they also shed light on how our brains interpret visual data.
  • By giving your brain a little workout regularly, you enhance your ability to focus and observe details.
  • Studies have shown people who regularly challenge themselves with optical illusions and puzzles see big improvements in their problem-solving skills, concentration, and attention.
  • Improved concentration and attention span can help prevent cognitive decline in old age.
  • Optical illusions can improve eyesight by allowing you to see small print.

The predator is ready to pounce on the herd as they remain oblivious to its presence.

Did your survival instincts help you locate the wild cat hiding in plain sight?

If your vision isn't up to scratch and you can't spot the cat, don't worry.
