Can you spot the 3 differences in cute turtle drawings in under 10 seconds
A new brain teaser featuring a pair of sleepy-looking cartoon turtles has taken social media by storm - and it's not as easy as it looks.
The side-by-side drawings, shared by X (formerly Twitter) user @BholanathDutta, challenge viewers to spot three subtle differences between two nearly identical illustrations.
At first glance, the turtles appear to be mirror images of each other, right down to their relaxed expressions, round shells and tally-mark patterns.
But eagle-eyed viewers will quickly realize something's a little off.
The challenge? Find all three discrepancies in under 10 seconds.
It may sound simple, but even the most confident puzzle-solvers have found themselves stumped.
The image has racked up hundreds of views and sparked debate online, with many users boasting lightning-fast times - and others admitting defeat after staring for far too long.
So what exactly separates the two turtles?
The first difference is in the nose.
If you look closely, the turtle on the top has a tiny nostril above its grin, giving it a slightly more realistic expression.
That bottom drawing has no nose making the turtle look even more uninterested.
The second variation hides in the turtle's shell.
Among the dozens of tally-mark shapes scrawled across its back, one grouping in the bottom image features a bright yellow line that stands out against the otherwise all-green markings of the top turtle.
It's a tiny detail, but once you spot it, it's hard to miss.
And finally, the third difference lies in the lower part of the turtle's shell.
Just above their little webbed feet, both turtles have a rim that outlines the base of the shell - but look closely, and you'll notice that the bottom turtle's shell rim is a noticeably lighter shade of green compared to the one on top.
If you managed to catch all three differences in under 10 seconds, congratulations - you've got the eyes of a hawk and the reflexes to match.
But if it took a little longer, you're not alone.
These kinds of visual puzzles are meant to trip up even the most observant minds.
As brain teasers like this continue to captivate users online, experts say they offer more than just fun - they also provide a quick mental workout, helping to improve attention to detail, concentration, and short-term memory.

Two issues that brought Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson to a breaking point as actress was ‘desperate' for it to work
DAKOTA Johnson was 'desperate' for her and Chris Martin to work out and was often left in tears by their on/off romance, a source has claimed. The actress, 35, and Coldplay singer, 48, were engaged for years after first being linked in 2017 but never made it official. 5 5 5 PEOPLE revealed on Wednesday that they have broken up again, with an insider saying, "It feels final this time." Dakota was last seen with Chris in Malibu just two weeks ago, and they were also seen holding hands in India during Coldplay's recent tour in January. But they have now called it quits and will be focusing on their respective careers. A source told The U.S. Sun that the 13-year age gap and the topic of children had often caused problems. "Dakota has been desperate for her and Chris to work out for years, and every time they broke up she was devastated and in tears," they said. "Even some of Dakota's team would have to console her when they were apart and she could never move on. "She really loves him and his children, and he deeply loves her, but things were just never lining up for them and it was very up and down. "They really tried to work through their issues but the age gap was often a problem and she'd expressed that she may want children in the future, whereas Chris is kind of done with that part of his life but they discussed it." It'll be hard for both of them to move on." A source told The U.S. Sun They added that they had been "back and forth on issues for years" and tried to figure out a future. "They made some beautiful memories as a family and it'll be hard for both of them to move on after such a long relationship but they will do it," they said. It's believed the pair now feel it's time to start a new chapter but will remain on good terms amid the breakup. The U.S. Sun has reached out to Dakoke and Chris's reps for comment. Dakota is currently focused on her acting career as she is set to appear in the new rom-com The Materialists alongside Pedro Pascal and Chris Evans. She spoke about relationships in an interview with the Los Angeles Times this week while promoting the upcoming movie. Dakota said, "For a long time we've all been so quick to judge relationships or how they should happen, how they should exist in the world. When people should get married. Divorce is bad. All these things that actually, if you think about it, why is divorce bad?' she said. 'Why do people have to get married, or at a certain age or only once? Why? It doesn't matter." Chris famously split from actress wife Gwyneth Paltrow in March 2014 after more than a decade of marriage. He reportedly got engaged to Dakota some years ago and she called his kids her "step-children". Chris, shares daughter Apple, 21, and son Moses, 19, with his ex Gwyneth, 53. A complete timeline of Chris and Dakota's relationship The pair sparked dating rumors in 2017 after meeting through friends. In January 2018, they stepped out in public together for the first time and were seen going for walks on the beach in Malibu. Later that month, Dakota's famous dad Don confirmed their romance and said, "She's a big girl; she can handle herself." In September 2018, their whirlwind romance stepped up when they got matching tattoos. Weeks later, TMZ falsely reported they were expecting a baby and Dakota said, "The only thing I'm pregnant with is a lot of really good ideas." In 2019, they split for the first time - but reunited just two months later. The following year Chris gave Dakota the honor of directing his music video for Coldplay's hit Cry Cry Cry. Over the years, they were faced with further rumors of trouble in paradise. In December 2021, Dakota spoke about life with Chris in an interview with Elle, saying, "We go out sometimes, but we both work so much that it's nice to be at home and be cozy and private." In 2024, it was reported they had been secretly engaged for years but had split again. They brushed off the rumors at the time by putting on a united front and their rep insisted, "They are happily together." Dakota spoke of her close relationship with Chris's kids in an interview with Bustle. She said, "I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart. "How do I feel about motherhood? I'm so open to that. "I've gotten to this place where I really want to experience everything life has to offer. 'And especially being a woman, I'm like: 'What a magical f***ing thing to do. What a crazy, magical, wild experience. "If that's meant to happen for me, I'm totally down for it. "We're not here for very long, so if I'm meant to be a mother, bring it on." Dakota also has the seal of approval from Gwyneth, who attended her 30th birthday party. She said about Chris and Dakota, "I love her. "I can see how it would seem weird because it's sort of unconventional. "But I think, in this case, just having passed through it iteratively, I just adore her. "I always start to think of the —what else can you bring in, instead of being resistant to or being made insecure by?" She explained, "It's not like there's a finish line: 'Oh, we consciously uncoupled; we're done.' "It's a lifelong commitment to constantly reinvent your relationship with your ex, which you do presumably because you have children together. "I don't see a reason to do it if you don't have children together. Some people do. "But I think we put all the hard work in at the beginning. I would say very rarely is it difficult now." 5

Chris Martin and Dakota Johnson SPLIT after eight years together leaving actress ‘devastated'
COLDPLAY'S Chris Martin and his actress fiancée Dakota Johnson have split up after eight years together. Rumours about their relationship had been swirling for months and it has now been confirmed Dakota, 35, and Chris, 48, have gone their separate ways. 2 A source told the Mail: "Their relationship has been over for a long time, they just haven't been able to figure out to make it official. Dakota held a flame for them to be together because she loved him so much and loved his kids so much." The source said they tried the age old technique of spending time away from each other but the absences didn't lead to their hearts growing fonder. "Dakota is devastated that she isn't going to be around his kids as much anymore, but wants them to know that she is always there for them," the insider continued. The pair were pictured holding hands in January at the Babulnath Temple, Mumbai, where Coldplay were touring. It followed Dakota, who is the daughter of actors Don Johnson and Melanie Griffith, working on new romance movie Materialist with co-stars Chris Evans and Pedro Pascal in New York. Chris famously split from actress wife Gwyneth in March 2014 after ten years of marriage. He reportedly got engaged to Dakota last March and she called his kids with Gwyneth, 51, her "step-children". Chris is dad to daughter Apple, 19, and son Moses, 17. The Fifty Shades of Grey star declared that she loves Chris's kids "like her life depends on it." She said: 'I love those kids like my life depends on it. With all my heart. "How do I feel about motherhood? I'm so open to that. "I've gotten to this place where I really want to experience everything life has to offer. 'And especially being a woman, I'm like: 'What a magical f***ing thing to do.

"I can see how it would seem weird because it's sort of unconventional. "But I think, in this case, just having passed through it iteratively, I just adore her. "I always start to think of the —what else can you bring in, instead of being resistant to or being made insecure by? "There's so much juice in leaning in to something like that. "It's not like there's a finish line: 'Oh, we consciously uncoupled; we're done.' "It's a lifelong commitment to constantly reinvent your relationship with your ex, which you do presumably because you have children together. "I don't see a reason to do it if you don't have children together. Some people do. "But I think we put all the hard work in at the beginning. I would say very rarely is it difficult now. "We've learned how to communicate with each other. We love each other. We laugh. "We have the best of each other. It's really nice. It makes you feel like you don't have to lose."

Race Across the World, ep 7, review: it's time for the sob stories to take a back seat
Warning: contains spoilers Just when you thought Race Across the World (BBC One) was running on a pretty familiar road, they go and wrong-foot you. In the penultimate leg of the race, the tried and tested helter skelter to the checkpoint, the edit skipping back and forth between competing pairs as they attempted to decipher baffling directions, was thrown out the window. Because it looked like ultra-competitive brothers Brian and Melvyn, the canny old codgers of the field, were a shoo-in. But in a devious twist that I was kicking myself for not seeing coming, all was not as it seemed and the glossy sign-in hotel book had a different tale to tell – Caroline and Tom were victors of this penultimate leg. It was a clever trick to play because, however entertaining a reality format is, viewers need to be kept on their toes. The cheeky twist showed there's plenty of life left, global meltdowns and closed borders permitting, in this compelling if tricksily edited travel race. The stunning cinematography of far-flung exotic locales we take for granted by now – India, here I come – and there are only so many times we can witness flustered Brits shouting, 'How much?! What no bus for five days?!' at ticket office windows. So the twist got a thumbs up. As did the welcome return of a spot of hitch-hiking, a dying art in our paranoid times. Admittedly, it was only Caroline and Tom and Sioned and Fin who got a lift to the nearest bus station rather than attempting a daring traverse across the sub-continent, but it was good to see trust being placed in the kindness of strangers rather than suspecting danger lurking around every corner. By this point, I'm usually rooting for my favourites to win and wishing a travel itinerary débacle on the ones who've got up my nose, but this year it's a pretty even field. No real heroes, no dastardly villains, which makes a refreshing change in reality casting world. It's not all plain sailing. This former backpacker would appreciate seeing more of India and the interactions with hosting families and employers, which have largely taken a back seat this series, and rather less of the prerequisite backstories that are going round in circles. How many times do we have to be told that Laetitia is gaining in confidence or that travel has brought mildly estranged brothers Brian and Melvyn together? I'm pleased for them, I truly am, but over seven episodes, the constant leaning into the other journey the contestants are taking, exorcising the demons in their lives, is becoming as wearying as a 12-hour night bus trip. Just the idea of that makes my back sigh. When we did see the racers engage with the locals, such as Sioned and Fin tucking into a home-made biryani donated to them by a kindly Indian chap on a bus, you got the real feeling of what a buzz life can be on the road. For that alone, I'd like the young Welsh couple to take next week's prize. For this passenger, the sob stories can take a back seat.
