The only thing that could have possibly made it better would be to have the cows eyes align with where the people eyes should be. Damn you stochasticity!
@lehcyfer — It took me a while to see your bear. It looks more like a giant panda head to me. The hard part was realizing that the open mouth is formed by the belly and left leg of the cow.

Before I read the description, I thought the illusion was the small cow body on the right appearing to connect to the big head in the foreground

Ah I see it now. Surely evidence of intelligent design.

Anyone sees coala bear on the right cow? The white one with black ears, black eye, black nose and open mouth?
October 12, 2011 at 11:23 am |
“The one” is about coala bear, not cow

I thought cows didn’t have horns?

It’s making me go cross-eyed.
