Which Zebra Is It? Viral Image Confounds Social Media

As it so often happens on the internet, some random picture will suddenly become viral because of some peculiar illusion. Remember the cat or crow picture?  There was the image that we weren't sure was in colour or monochrome and then there was the image where we were told to find the pug. Now there is the zebra picture that has gone viral and is teasing people: Which zebra’s face do we see in the picture?

Which zebra is in front?

There are two or more zebras in this image. Which one's head can be seen in this image, was the question.

Difficult to say

It’s a zebra crossing, pointed out journalist Maya Sharma.

Left one!

In fact some of the tweeple even had a name for the zebra. The zebra in the Madagascar films, Marty, is arguably the most popular zebra name.

Can’t make out

The tweeple were quite perplexed. The picture is so perfectly framed that it could be either zebra.

Tough ask

The tweeple thought that this a tough one; akin to some of the difficult questions of all time.

People gave it serious consideration

The position of the ears, the angle of the neck, everything was considered.

Another option

One head, two bodies, said this Twitter user.

No consensus

Some thought it was the face of the zebra on the left; others thought it was the one of the right.

One good turn deserves another

This Twitter user shared a beautiful image of these magnificent beasts.

Two or three?

Then there were some who thought that it wasn’t just two but three zebras in the image; making it even tougher to decide which one was in front. So, which zebra's face do you see in the image?
