While waiting for its victim, the cunning serpent has skilfully hid itself amid the rocks and trees.
The picture depicts what appears to be a tranquil Arizonan wooded setting.
The seemingly unremarkable picture has turned out to be a stern reminder for nature lovers to be careful with every step they take when exploring.
The dangerous snake totally hid itself in the vegetation, demonstrating its mastery of disguise.
The “severe” difficulty level was stated by the TikTok user who shared the video.
The caption said: “The hardest round of Spot the Snake yet!”
And they asked viewers: “Would you walk right past it?”
Would you risk stepping on the snake if you couldn’t see it before it pounced?
While some viewers were perplexed, others immediately recognised the monster.
One said: “There’s a gap in the wood on the right and you can see the snake scales.”
Another wrote: “Got it! Hint: Look by the heart.”
But a third said: “I need another hint.”
If you look closely, you can see the skin’s amazing pattern because the distinctive colour shows out against the plain background.
