The Internet Is Going Crazy Trying To Find The Camouflaged Snake In This Picture – Can You Find It?
A herpetology student from Florida named Helen just shared a photo of a snake being so blended into nature, it’s a real struggle to find it. The picture was posted with the following caption: “Received this from a fellow HERper this morning. No caption needed, the task was implied: “can you spot the snake?”
So, what are you waiting for – will YOU take the challenge and find the hiding reptile? Helen was kind enough to give a hint: “If y’all haven’t found it yet… Copperhead, aka Agkistrodon contortrix. Cute but venomous, so no touchy!”
Seriously, this snake is the master of camouflage!

I found it within 30 seconds, but that was sheer luck. Pretty sure I wouldn't be able to spot that copperhead if I was actually on the scene.

I've stepped right over a GIANT snake before without ever realizing it was there. He was dark green and the grass was bright but my mind processed it as a stick until I heard my husband laughing at me. Then I looked down and was startled for a sec, until I saw that it was just a 6 foot long, thicker than my arm, but harmless ratsnake.

I'm partially color blind, so it was easier for me to spot camouflage here. But there is one thing that has me worried. Where is the snake's head? That is the last thing a snake would cover up before hiding the body.

You can just barely see his eye I believe on the top half, I'm pretty sure the snakes head is just tilted at an odd angle, not covered

Jo, I saved the picture to my laptop which in a 17 inch laptop, and I had to blow it up bigger than my screen to find it, but I did before I read the article. The picture is too small to see that snake, unless you get lucky and just spot it. I do need glasses btw, not wearing them.

Nvm I see it now thanks to @Phrashant Karnath saying it's a copperhead.

Oh no. Oh no no no. I did one of these before and I literally wanted to stab my eyeballs out with a fork
