Can you spot the black bear peeking from the forest in the Pacific Northwest?
The U.S. Fish and Wildlife Service asked a similar question Monday via social media and provided the main image and a second image showing a portion of the bear in a different location.
We’ve provided both images below, with the answer circled at the bottom of this post.
Can you spot the bear?
“In the Pacific Northwest, fish hatchery employees are accustomed to wildlife encounters, including black bears,” the USFWS post states. “These photos were taken during a hike earlier this summer to check on water levels above Leavenworth National Fish Hatchery, in the mountains of central Washington.”
Hint: Not all black bears have black fur, which appears evident in both of Mathew Maxey’s images.
