People told they have 'eyes of a sniper' if they can spot snake hidden in woods

I have no idea where those snakes are

The internet has come up with another puzzling challenge to test if you have the eyesight and target identification necessary to spot certain dangers.

The good folks of the Reddit group r/FindtheSniper have posted two pictures of nature with sneaky serpents hidden somewhere within and if you can actually spot them, then well done you.

I'll be honest with you dear reader, I do not possess the 'eyes of a sniper' so much as the eyes of someone who wears contact lenses and I was hopeless at spotting the snakes here.

If these little serpents were venomous and in any way aggressive, I'd have been absolutely screwed.

On the plus side, I don't spend much of my time poking through potentially serpent-infested undergrowth so this might not be a skill I need.

Can you spot them?

I hope you did better than me here. (Reddit/u/Prize-Technology-811)

There's been plenty of these challenges posted online for people to test their vision on, but this one might take the proverbial cake for difficulty.

I couldn't spot the snakes in either picture and other folks giving it a go also struggled.

One said they 'must be blind' because they were just not seeing either snake, while another protested that they 'can't see s**t'.

"Lord never put me in this situation cause I would be dead," someone else wrote, but the person who posted the pictures reassured them that these snakes weren't the kind that could kill you.

A helpful commenter pointed out that the serpent in the first image was a Garter Snake, which is one of the few types of snakes which can be both venomous and poisonous.

However, the poison comes from their diet of eating poisonous creatures and the harm the snakes themselves pose to humans is negligible.

I was still baffled by this one, maybe you'd do better than me. (Reddit/u/Prize-Technology-811)

But if you are struggling, one commenter said that the first snake can be found 'on the right side of the photo, midway between the top and bottom', while the second one's head is 'sticking out under the upper left clump of brown mushrooms'.

If you can crack these puzzling perspectives, then there are other 'eyes of a sniper' challenges for you to try.

There's a picture of a freezing cold scene with a dog standing somewhere in it where the chilly canine is all but invisible.

Other challenges involve you trying to spot moths and various different kinds of snakes that blend in well with the background.

As you can imagine, there are some 'eyes of a sniper' challenges which actually involve you trying to spot a sniper.

Even if you can't see them they can definitely still see you and blast a chunk out of you, so here's hoping you never find yourself on a battlefield with absolutely no idea where an enemy is.
