The cat’s meow
This is a tricky one—you’ll really have to focus to spot a snow leopard on this Tibetan mountainside.

But does it help if we tell you that this image is way zoomed out? On this vast mountainside, the leopard is actually just a small speck with a tail. Try looking on the right side of the image, at the upward slope.
