It came just weeks after Dudolf challenged players to find the snake hiding in a jungle-themed seek-and-find puzzle.

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 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.
