In a puzzle that has gone viral on the internet, Twitter user Earyn McGee recently shared a tweet that asked all her followers to find a lizard in the picture. According to reports, McGee often shares tweets in which she asks her followers to find a lizard hiding in the pictures.
This week you’re searching for Sceloporus graciosus, the common sagebrush lizard (see last rt for reference) @Yara_Haridy found this individual in Dinasaur Ntl Park! You’ll have until 9pm to #FindThatLizard. Post guesses in the comments with #FoundThatLizard. Good luck! 🦎💜 pic.twitter.com/DeNixIe4fZ

Netizens call 'Find that Lizard' challenge amazingly difficult
The challenge on social media platform Twitter prompted quite a few reactions.
I #FoundThatLizard! Ooh, they're a lovely color! Is that surface rocks or soil crust?

Is this a trick? Like there are two lizards in the pic, but the obvious one is not Sceloporus graciosus?

Just one and I’m pretty sure it is. But I’m happy to correct it if you have an alternate Id.

#FoundThatLizard 🦎 And it just hit me that these photos would make amazingly difficult 🧩

I like to zoom out first, make sure there isn’t a Godzilla-size lizard on the horizon, and then zoom in to the foreground to study each fuzzy pixel.

#FoundThatLizard - I love these, they were almost the only local lizards where I grew up in Montana. We used to find the teeny babies in the spring - so cute!

Hey everyone! Thanks for playing! I hope you #FoundThatLizard 🦎

PSA: There will not be a challenge next week as I’ll be in the middle of my written comprehensive exams. We’ll be back the week after next! pic.twitter.com/iAnJuoHolb
