IF YOU have a fear of snakes, this won’t be a fun game for you.

But people on Twitter have been engaging in a surprisingly difficult brainteaser of spot the deadly snake.

Helen, a biology student from Florida who studies reptiles, posted the picture snapped by her friend Whitney G Walkowski, of what appears to be a pile of leaves on the ground.

But the snap also contains a heavily camouflaged snake that is almost impossible to see.

And the reptile is so hidden it’s a wonder that she could even see it at all, and posted an image to challenge others to do the same.

Can you see it?

If you can’t, don’t worry, you’re certainly not alone.

The original poster followed it up with another picture outlining where the snake is — and even then it’s still a little tough to make out.

The student wrote: "If y’all haven’t found it yet ... Copperhead, aka Agkistrodon contortrix. Cute but venomous, so no touchy!"

 Another picture was later uploaded to Twitter showing the outline of the reptile

Yesterday we asked if you could spot what's hidden in these five pictures in just 45 seconds?

And we also asked if you could spot the family pets hidden in these mind-boggling optical illusions?
