Somewhere in the picture is a Kit Fox, a fox species common in the southwest of the United States.
However, as they are a nocturnal breed it is incredibly rare to spot one in broad daylight.
How long does it take you to see the fox in this brainteaser?
Being the smallest of their fox species known as Vulpes, and having a natural talent for camouflage, it may be harder to find than you expect.
However, if you are struggling, there are a couple of things that could help.
One of the kit fox’s most distinctive features is its large ears, so keep an eye out for them.
It may also help if you divide the image into smaller sections to minimize the search area, making it more likely you will notice smaller details that could lead you to the answer.
Stumped Reddit users also shared how they eventually found the animal.
“My daughter and I were super zoomed in on every rock to find it and suddenly got jumped scared by the fox,” one wrote.
“It’s super worth that ‘oh hello’ moment,” another replied.
Meanwhile, some users pointed out the similarities between the fox and small dog breeds such as the Corgi or the Chihuahua.
Perhaps you will find the fox easier by looking for these tiny dogs instead.
