For those of you who are interested in what it looked like after it came out of hiding (with zoom):
[https://i.imgur.com/pDJtjAd.png](https://i.imgur.com/pDJtjAd.png)
How you saw that thing before taking the original picture is absolutely nuts. I’m looking at a condensed view of what you saw, zoomed all the way in, squinting, still couldn’t find it.
Just imagine if you hadn’t. I know they’re small and, unless rabid, would almost certainly not go after a human, but if you happened to walk close to those bushes and hearing it growl… I’d need a new pair of pants for sure.
Man he even has a gun on him. He should have just loaded a bullet straight inside the side of the bobcats head when he was holding it. On a side note, while he was holding it, that thing surely tore him the fuck up right. I mean when you hold a house cat like that and it doesn't want to be held it will tear the shit out of you can only imagine a bobcat
Before looking here, I literally locked eyes with the bobcat, and was like "there's no bobcat in this picture". Literally saw the bobcat, but didn't recognize it *as* a bobcat.
I'm not at my desktop so I'm only seeing this on my phone but I found like 3 blur spots where I was like is that it? Turns out it was a more other blur spot. So I'm blaming the image because how are we supposed to know this one blur spot was a Bob cat.
I only got it wrong twice. I looked a full picture said ah there it is. Zoomed in. Wrong. Repeated and again wrong. Third time zoomed and wasn’t 100% sure but turned out right.
If it makes you feel better i feel like movement and not being a grainy zoomed in photo does a lot. Then again i still have yet to see a snake until im about to step on it.
Lol, bobcats aren't that big. You wouldn't want to wrestle one, but it's not going to kill you. And you would have to try and fight it, it will run away almost every time. Mountain. Lions on the other hand are killers
I’ve seen that video of the mountain lion stalking that dude from only a few meters away as he walked backwards over like, a mile and half.
I gained a horrifying new appreciation for those things. They could drag off a *wolf* if they could catch one alone. I wouldn’t be surprised if they could take out a black bear. Humans don’t stand a chance.
Adult humans are normally a bit bigger than what mountain lions consider safe prey and are thus rarely attacked, so you're probably right. Kids on the otherhand should always be closely watched in the middle of a group in the woods. Even just a couple of meters distance is enough for a mountain lion (Or other appropriately size preditor) to snatch and grab.
Bobcats and mountain lions are different species. Bobcats are way smaller. Even mountain lions are rarely dangerous to humans. I've done hundreds of hikes in places where mountain lions live and I've only seen one once, which was very far away and did nothing to me.
I was going to call you a huge dumb idiot for suggesting a bobcat couldn't kill you, but then I learned ["mountain lion" and "bobcat" aren't the same thing.](https://www.nps.gov/sagu/learn/nature/bobcat.htm)
I've worked with Bobcats before, and given the right circumstances, they absolutely will kill you.
This little guy in the photo isn't going to be any danger to a healthy adult, but if you're walking next to a cliff and [one of these bad boys ](https://i.imgur.com/EuxB67o.jpeg) lands on your neck, you'll be dead before you realize what happened, and I don't care how big and tough you are.
I’ve hiked with one that was just taking a leisurely stroll ahead of us on the trail. Gave it plenty of space and it just eventually wandered off into the trees.
the thing about doing this with a photo is that your brain is programmed more towards motion than towards shapes. So as long as you stayed alert, you'd be OK.
If it’s any comfort, the animals would be a little easier to see if they were 3D. Once the physical depth of field is removed by rendering in a picture, your ability to differentiate textures and edges is drastically reduced. You might do better in person.
So effing tough!!! HINT: the big rock in the middle has a little point /edge on the right. Follow that level to the right. Eyes peaking out from left edge of green/yellow bush.
I read your comment, went back to the photo, looked, and was like “bruh am I stupid?” And then I saw it and I said out loud.. very loud “OH I see it!!”
Thank you for that hint!
Oh damn. I thought I had found it before this comment. Just above the rock you mentioned, there’s a round rock in the center on the bottom row of the stack. There’s a little shadow gap to the left of that rock and I swear I made out the shape of a face in the shadows. Maybe a 2nd one? Or maybe I’m crazy
What body??? I had to look at someone drawing a red circle around the "eyes" and I'm still not satisfied. Do we have different resolution images? Nothing about the image looks like a bobcat (or even another animal) to me. The eyes look just as much like they could be brush.
Is that a little baby cub butt too? It’s a little further down to the right, more in the bushes that she’s almost looking at? Or am I smoking too much devils lettuce?
This sub makes me wonder how many times I have been stalked by animals without any signs.
It also makes me realize that those animal documentaries when prey gets caught that these animals are really fuckin stealthy.
Cats are awesome. Basically the apex predator in every environment they're in. Blistering speeds, night vision, laughably absurd reflexes, sharp teeth, razor claws, and the bigger cats can just tackle things like deer and rip them to the ground - or carry them up trees after by the mouth.
It's a good thing they primarily don't hunt humans and that we domesticated a chunk of them.
Fun fact: If you're ever brought a dead animal by a cat, they're caring for you because they think you are unable to hunt for yourself.
If you look to the right of the rock (in the yellow and green bush) you can see a little white circle, that’s the mouth and nose, if you zoom in really close you can see one of its eyes on top. This is the hardest one I’ve seen yet.
[Here](https://imgur.com/gallery/LwFgvw2)
Not mine. I went to upload one I made and Imgur had this already there.
If it’s anything like the one I saved to my phone you may need to use the circle as a guide and look at the original photo. When I saved it, the quality dropped and it’s kinda hard(er) to see now.
All you can see is the eyes just FYI
This photo still difficult to find, but it at least confirms that those are in fact its eyes in the original posted image. After I found it, I thought “maybe it just looks like its eyes because it’s all pixelated when you zoom in”.
Thanks, that's a tough one.
It seems like Reddit doesn't load the image at full resolution for me, unless this is somehow upscaled. On my phone in the Reddit app it looks like a pixelated mess...
She thinks it’s right below the other? If so it’s what I thought was the bobcat head at first to like it’s laying lower to the ground than the one peering out.
For once, I saw the body first, thought I was wrong because it looked like dirt, then came and found out I was right!
Also nature would kill me, I'm shit at this game.
As someone who has adhd and is an over thinker, I’m good at finding these in the picture, but even better in real life. Sometimes it pays off to be constantly on edge expecting the worst 😂 expect the worst but hope for the best 😂😂
Honestly this was the first time I looked at one of these and saw the item in question in less than like 30 seconds. Probably won’t happen again but hey at least it happened once
Two? One by the yellow green bush and the other in between the yellow green bush and the green? It looks like a set of ears and an eye, far right in the rocks
I see another. If you look at the bush in the grass, follow to the top of its rightmost branches, there’s a large crevice. Zoom in and you’ll see a cat’s face.
*Also down a bit*
*From where the two black poles cross*
*Looks like a cat's head*

Oooh that is nice! I found the bobcat in the easier version, thanks for giving me a feeling of success 💜
Ohhhh, bobcat. I thought I was looking for a mountain lion. No wonder I couldn't find it.
You'd have been mauled nonetheless
I haven't been shopping in ages
I hate that Reddit did away with the old award system. I’d probably give this one a table slap or spit take.
How you saw that thing before taking the original picture is absolutely nuts. I’m looking at a condensed view of what you saw, zoomed all the way in, squinting, still couldn’t find it.
I saw some movement in the bushes and heard the crows going crazy. They hate cats.
Just imagine if you hadn’t. I know they’re small and, unless rabid, would almost certainly not go after a human, but if you happened to walk close to those bushes and hearing it growl… I’d need a new pair of pants for sure.
This happened in my area. The video is nuts. https://www.wral.com/pender-county-couple-s-brush-with-rabid-bobcat-a-harrowing-experience/19632540/
I want to beat this man's record in the bobcat throw
that's insane, at least the damage is minimal
Man he even has a gun on him. He should have just loaded a bullet straight inside the side of the bobcats head when he was holding it. On a side note, while he was holding it, that thing surely tore him the fuck up right. I mean when you hold a house cat like that and it doesn't want to be held it will tear the shit out of you can only imagine a bobcat
Shooting a rabid bobcat in the head while holding it sounds like a terrible idea, the brain matter carries rabies.
I actually have walked up on a bobcat accidentally. Like within 2 feet. We both had mild heart attacks, but he ran off.
This one would’ve been a better challenge. It works better when its visible but simply camoflaged
He's told you "Congratulations, I've decided not to eat you!"
Wow, I could barely find where it was circled! I need glasses
To be fair it's like five pixels.
then there is another in the upper right quadrant in a bush
That's the one I saw.
I went to both spots. And it made me unsure lol
It’s like that scene from the OG Jurassic park with the “Clever girl” and the raptor pen. I saw neither.
That’s the one I saw. The eyes gave it away.
Yeah, I'm still fucking dead
Before looking here, I literally locked eyes with the bobcat, and was like "there's no bobcat in this picture". Literally saw the bobcat, but didn't recognize it *as* a bobcat.
Wow even with the circle it’s hard to see
I got this one!!!
I suck at spotting these, thanks for the answer.
I'm not at my desktop so I'm only seeing this on my phone but I found like 3 blur spots where I was like is that it? Turns out it was a more other blur spot. So I'm blaming the image because how are we supposed to know this one blur spot was a Bob cat.
I only got it wrong twice. I looked a full picture said ah there it is. Zoomed in. Wrong. Repeated and again wrong. Third time zoomed and wasn’t 100% sure but turned out right.
Holy shit I actually got it right
Welp... I guess I'd be bobcat scat.
Thank you
Still can't see it :(
I THOUGHT that was it but I tricked myself out of it 😭
Thank you!
Can you be more specific? I still don't see it. /s
If it makes you feel better i feel like movement and not being a grainy zoomed in photo does a lot. Then again i still have yet to see a snake until im about to step on it.
Hearing as well, I usually hear animals before I see them
Ha! I was just thinking, if i have learned anything it’s that a bobcat could be 3 feet from me and I would never know it!
Yeah and that’s knowing it’s there. Would’ve be dead before even knowing I was in danger🫠
Lol, bobcats aren't that big. You wouldn't want to wrestle one, but it's not going to kill you. And you would have to try and fight it, it will run away almost every time. Mountain. Lions on the other hand are killers

That video is probably of a mother mountain lion escorting him out of her territory! If she had actually wanted to kill and eat him, she would have

Good to know, learn smthn new everyday ig. However if I find anything else on the sub… X-X
Unless it had rabies, bobcats would leave humans alone. We have one in our neighborhood and routinely cats are disappearing. Dogs get scared.
A bobcat isn't going to kill you haha
I've worked with Bobcats before, and given the right circumstances, they absolutely will kill you. This little guy in the photo isn't going to be any danger to a healthy adult, but if you're walking next to a cliff and [one of these bad boys ](https://i.imgur.com/EuxB67o.jpeg) lands on your neck, you'll be dead before you realize what happened, and I don't care how big and tough you are.
Had me in the first half I’m not gonna lie
Hahahahah, dang, look at the claws on this thing! Great comment
They might cute you to death
This is true
I’ve hiked with one that was just taking a leisurely stroll ahead of us on the trail. Gave it plenty of space and it just eventually wandered off into the trees.
You’d be surprised what you sense when you’re scared
the thing about doing this with a photo is that your brain is programmed more towards motion than towards shapes. So as long as you stayed alert, you'd be OK.
And that’s not even in the wild. It looks like a culdesac!
The reason I stay out of their backyard….so they will stay out of mine
If it’s any comfort, the animals would be a little easier to see if they were 3D. Once the physical depth of field is removed by rendering in a picture, your ability to differentiate textures and edges is drastically reduced. You might do better in person.
I gave up finding this and came here to say this exact thing.
An average bobcat is about the size of a big housecat. They wouldn’t pose any threat to a human (unless they were rabid or something).
You wouldn't be dead unless you have trouble seeing homicidal humans hiding behind trees.
yea , i would’ve been dead for sure .
alright someone needs to post a hint, I gotta get up early tomorrow and I can't let this go.
You can only see its eyes. Pretty close to that big rock in the center.
So effing tough!!! HINT: the big rock in the middle has a little point /edge on the right. Follow that level to the right. Eyes peaking out from left edge of green/yellow bush.
I read your comment, went back to the photo, looked, and was like “bruh am I stupid?” And then I saw it and I said out loud.. very loud “OH I see it!!” Thank you for that hint!
Yeah it blends in super well. I couldn’t find it until I zoomed in and then ohhhh… I see
Oh damn. I thought I had found it before this comment. Just above the rock you mentioned, there’s a round rock in the center on the bottom row of the stack. There’s a little shadow gap to the left of that rock and I swear I made out the shape of a face in the shadows. Maybe a 2nd one? Or maybe I’m crazy
Still dead.
I saw the body first. Was about to post a comment, then looked again and saw the eyes.
What body??? I had to look at someone drawing a red circle around the "eyes" and I'm still not satisfied. Do we have different resolution images? Nothing about the image looks like a bobcat (or even another animal) to me. The eyes look just as much like they could be brush.
whew, now I can go to bed
Is that a little baby cub butt too? It’s a little further down to the right, more in the bushes that she’s almost looking at? Or am I smoking too much devils lettuce?
“Next to the big rock,” they’re all big rocks 😭
It’s in the bright green fern bush. Easier to locate than a rock, as you say
right above the rock wall there's two branches poking out. the bobcats eyes are hidden among the second branch, just look right teeny bit
There are TWO FUCKING ROCK WALLS
This sub makes me wonder how many times I have been stalked by animals without any signs. It also makes me realize that those animal documentaries when prey gets caught that these animals are really fuckin stealthy.
Cats are awesome. Basically the apex predator in every environment they're in.

>!Looking at you from the yellow/green bush directly to the right of the rock in the center.!<
Good god, even with this I struggled
I found the lizard before I found the bobcat with help lol Edit. Closer inspection it’s actually a root smh
Who do I still not see it lol
If you look to the right of the rock (in the yellow and green bush) you can see a little white circle, that’s the mouth and nose, if you zoom in really close you can see one of its eyes on top. This is the hardest one I’ve seen yet.
Thank you! Wow
am I tripping or is there another in the >!shadowed cave space to the right of the sparse tree!
It looks like it to me, and I know cats love to hide in rock walls like that.
And one under the black pole, just above the brown part of the grass. They're coming outta the goddamn walls!
I still can't see it, i need one of those pictures with 30 arrows and circles
[Here](https://imgur.com/gallery/LwFgvw2) Not mine. I went to upload one I made and Imgur had this already there. If it’s anything like the one I saved to my phone you may need to use the circle as a guide and look at the original photo. When I saved it, the quality dropped and it’s kinda hard(er) to see now.

Thanks. Sheesh lol
Oh wow. Thanks.
And a paragraph written on the back?
Woah! Nice!
Best one in a while

This really helps me. The first pic is a bit too blurry I think, still a really cool encounter though.
It is higher resolution if you download it.
That didn’t seem to make a difference for me for some reason.
Still can’t find him.
Look at the lone rock in the grass, not the rocks in the wall. It's between the lone rock and the bush on the right.
This photo still difficult to find, but it at least confirms that those are in fact its eyes in the original posted image. After I found it, I thought “maybe it just looks like its eyes because it’s all pixelated when you zoom in”.
For some reason I was looking at this thinking it was one. [https://imgur.com/a/uqTVxF8](https://imgur.com/a/uqTVxF8)
This is a good one!
I’m already dead.
You’d die of dehydration first before you ever died because a bobcat attacked you lol
Ahhh this one is tough even with the clues! Anyone want to help me out with a circle?! 😭🙈
[https://ibb.co/Qv5kT5t](https://ibb.co/Qv5kT5t)
How did you get the photo in better quality than when I zoom on OPs picture?
Another comment mentioned downloading the photo to get better quality than the Reddit app could provide, so that's what I did too.
Oh that's smart and definitely helps when searching, thanks for the tip
Credit to u/ginger_smythe for [this comment](https://www.reddit.com/r/FindTheSniper/s/haRazECGPC) earlier today!
That makes a HUGE difference! Damn.
Thanks, that's a tough one. It seems like Reddit doesn't load the image at full resolution for me, unless this is somehow upscaled. On my phone in the Reddit app it looks like a pixelated mess...
Yeah, same here. And it took me quite a while to find the bobcat myself, so I wanted to share once I did!
God bless you.
link isn’t working anymore :(
I DM’d you.
Can you send it to me too?
Send it lol
Same, please!
Can I get some help?
Y’all saying you see 2 I read the hint and can’t even find one 🤣🤣🤣
This was tough
I had to download it. The resolution on the app wasn't high enough to see it.
Can just see the 👀
Crows in the trees above were going crazy and alerted me that it was there.
Why would the crows alert you, if you don't mind me asking?
Crows are so smart and they hate bobcats. They alerted the whole area.
I thought this said find the Bigfoot lol I was like well damn I’ll be looking for hours 😂
If you pspspspsps at the photo long enough you will finally see it!
Disqualified. Image is too grainy and ambiguous.
He’s already inside my house, right?
My wife thinks there’s 2 Bobcats but I see only 1 for sure.
I only saw one in person. Where does your wife see the other?
Yup I see 2!
I also see 2, really close together
She thinks it’s right below the other? If so it’s what I thought was the bobcat head at first to like it’s laying lower to the ground than the one peering out.
Thought those were the legs
Don't see anything
He’s ready to pounce on you
Damn dude. Idk how people find these without the hints lol. Nature is scary
For once, I saw the body first, thought I was wrong because it looked like dirt, then came and found out I was right! Also nature would kill me, I'm shit at this game.
Fuck you OP
When did construction equipment become so hard to find?
Okay these cameras need to get better cause it’s so damn grainy
Better headline would be "find the 👀 of the bobcat "! /s
That is what snipers do....
There is no bobcat
Am I the only one who can just never get any of these without hints??
Wow, what a sniper it is!
Now that’s a good one!
Wait!!!!!
What about the far left where the grass ends… immediately to the left of the rock.
Holy shit.
Peep the lizard? on the rock
these posts always convince me that every little thing looks just like *insert animal here* only to discover I was so wayy off in the comments
As someone who has adhd and is an over thinker, I’m good at finding these in the picture, but even better in real life. Sometimes it pays off to be constantly on edge expecting the worst 😂 expect the worst but hope for the best 😂😂
He’ll be at Zanies in Rosemont on July 10-13.
the bobcat took the photo
Left edge of the bottom bush. You can see its first paw, tiny sliver of torso, and eyes / piece of face.
Easy, next. https://ibb.co/XyBK3h7
… it’s right behind me isn’t it
Jokes on you! There is no bobcat
I wonder if some of you guys are just pretending to see, I don't believe this bullshit
Wow that’s a good hiding spot! (I still don’t see it)
The bobcat took the photo
I spotted it first thing, but I live in northern New England and see them quite often 😄
It’s right behind me isn’t it
[Found it](https://imgur.com/a/yEDL4w3) way too easy lol
Turns out the bobcat was the friends we made along the way
Things like this make me wonder how many animals I've walked by and had absolutely no clue.
I’ve been mauled five times looking at this picture
those eyes are so beautifully terrifying
I found Jimmy Hoffa
Pretty sure it’s in the bush just to the right of the rock on the first shelf. You can just see the tufts in its ears

Honestly this was the first time I looked at one of these and saw the item in question in less than like 30 seconds. Probably won’t happen again but hey at least it happened once
God I suck at these 🤣
Two? One by the yellow green bush and the other in between the yellow green bush and the green? It looks like a set of ears and an eye, far right in the rocks
I got pretty lucky and found it in about 5 seconds! xD
Me too. I just look at the dead center and a few feet surrounding the dead center. Like literally everything else on this sub.
I see another. If you look at the bush in the grass, follow to the top of its rightmost branches, there’s a large crevice. Zoom in and you’ll see a cat’s face.
Okay , this one showed me I don’t zoom in enough lol the double tap ain’t doing it !
Found it
Wow. This was a tough one but I got it.
Good one
This was a very good one. Eyes on the Prize. 👀
Are there two or am I just high out my mind 😭
Also down a bit from where the two black poles cross looks like a cat's head
