- Hilarious photos show the animals and people who are hiding in plain sight
- Some feature critters that have fur which perfectly matches their surroundings
- Others show people whose outfits spookily blend into the background
Armies intentionally use camouflage to blend into the background to hide from enemy forces.
But these animals and civilians managed to hide themselves in plain sight purely by accident in hilarious coincidental photos.
Some of the pictures feature cunning creatures who you could easily tread on as they perfectly match their surroundings.
Others feature people who happened to be wearing outfits that perfectly blend into the background.
These are the spookiest cases of accidental camouflage – so can you spot the person or animal hiding in each photo?
It looks as if there are three chequered bags in the back seat of this car… until you realise the sack on the right is actually a man wearing a shirt with a very similar pattern

Beige on beige on beige! While it’s easy to spot the Golden Retriever lying on the floor that perfectly matches his fur, it’s a little harder at first to see the golden kitten lying on the dog’s back
