Tricky brainteaser challenges you to find the snake

A tricky new seek-and-find puzzle challenges players to find the snake hiding in the jungle.

The brainteaser shows a jungle scene in shades of green, with birds flitting between branches and thick foliage in the background. 

But the single slithering snake is almost impossible to find.

The brainteaser, created by children’s illustrator Gergely Dudás, from Budapest, Hungary, shows a mass of green and yellow leaves with misleading parrots 

The brainteaser is the latest creation by children’s illustrator and viral puzzle sensation Gergely Dudás, from Budapest, Hungary, better known as Dudolf, who shared the post on his Facebook page and website

The challenging graphic, produced by the illustrator of Fox & Rabbit, prompted fans of Dudolf’s work to say it is ‘very difficult’. 

If you’re looking for a place to start, begin by working from left to right and look closely between the leaves to see if anything is hiding.

Try not to be put off by the vine leaves and parrots as you weave you way through the jungle to find the snake. 

And if you are still struggling, try looking closely at the patterns on the leaves to spot the creature. 

Give up? Then scroll down to find the answer highlighted among the faded jungle scene.

The eagle-eyed bird catches the worm in another tricky new puzzle. 

People across the nation are being tasked with finding the earthworm hidden among the feathered flock in this baffling brainteaser. 

It was created to mark the launch of new website Nest Friends, which helps parents teach children about the variety of birds there are across the UK. 

Each British breed has been turned into a bright, bold character with simplified markings to enable children to easily identify them – but that doesn’t make it any easier to find the pesky worm. 

On average it takes users 30 seconds to find the invertebrate – so, can you beat the record?

Rick Oliver, 35, from Kings Hill in Kent, came up with the idea for the website at the start of lockdown. 

He said: ‘Nest Friends is a fun, educational online resource for parents of young children to help them learn about the birds they may see in their gardens, on walks, or out of the window.

‘I created it as a way of keeping young children entertained during the lockdown measures that have been put in place.’ 

If you’re struggling to find the worm, cast your eyes to the left-hand side of the picture.
