7. In an Alley
The coloring of animal furs does not only help in hiding in the wild. For some domesticated animals, they are just as capable of hiding in plain sight in human civilization. In this picture, spot the animal (that you know very well) staring straight at you.

To hunt an animal like the deer that is so well-hidden, you will need camouflaging abilities even better, or at least equal to it. In this picture, the royal queen of the jungle is patiently scouting what is in front of her. Can you spot where she is sitting?
Here’s the location:
9. Spot the sure-footed animal
You will have difficulty believing anything, let alone a living animal, can traverse a terrain like that. The angles are almost 90 degrees, and the ground is nowhere near connected. However, there’s not one but two animals standing on the rocks without any issues!
Here are the animals:

Just as the title suggests, there is a cat hiding in this pile of logs. In fact, the cat is having a splendid rest too! It is not even trying to hide; you will wonder how you missed it when you see the answer. So, before it comes to that, try to spot the animal!

Look, you don’t need to brave the wild to notice animals hiding in plain sight. In fact, there might be one of them right in your living room! In this picture, see if you can find the animal taking a nap.
