Master of disguise hidden in plain sight… but can YOU spot the snow leopard on this Himalayan mountainside?

A snow leopard was caught on camera showing off its camouflaging skills as it effortlessly hid in plain sight on the side of a Himalayan mountainside.

Thanks to its grey and black speckled fur and white belly the elusive predator can evade the untrained eye as it disappears by blending into the snowy mountain terrain.

Award winning wildlife photographer Dafna Ben-nun, 43, managed to spot and snap the stealthy snow leopard, who was later joined by its sibling, after climbing the Himalayas of India.

She says she walked for kilometres in deep snow to reach the edge of the cliffs so she could catch a glimpse of the pair who began chasing each other in a game of tag.

Dafna said: 'We managed to see two fluffy snow leopards playing with each other.

'We were told that they are brother and sister. I'm extremely lucky not only to see them but also to be able to photograph them.

'They are very elusive animals and there are not many of them left in the wild.'

Dafna said she climbed up the Himalayas to 4500m where the oxygen levels are low in almost minus 20 degree weather.

They are such solitary creatures that there is no term for a group of snow leopards so it is extremely rare to see two of them together in the wild

Snow leopards live across a vast area of mountains in northern and central Asia

In the Himalayas they live in high alpine areas typically above the tree line and up to 18,000 feet above the ground
