Bunny or bird: New optical illusion stumps the internet

Share:

It's a bird! It's a rabbit!

But it's definitely a bird. But you be the judge.

Now, there's a new optical illusion driving the internet insane.

Dan - who is a biological psychiatry researcher at the University of Oslo - wrote alongside it: "Rabbits love getting stroked on their nose".

The video that Quintana posted was originally taken by the sanctuary's curator of bird training, Paige Davis.

The replies made for interesting commentary with one user saying: "ok so I posted this on your fb too, but gotta make sure people appreciate it here too", with daffy and bugs bunny going head to head over the conundrum.

Not only did the outlet come up with the type of bird, they found the exact bird in the video: an African white-necked raven named Mischief.

The 18-year-old bird lives in the World Bird Sanctuary in Missouri, and according to his handlers he talks and paints in addition to normal bird stuff like flying. To him, it was clear that the video featured a bird.

Davis told CNN that Mischief is actually already quite famous, especially for his talking.

That's the question sparked by a video that's gone viral.

And not only will it keep you guessing for at least ten minutes, it also involves adorable animals.

Those talents, thankfully, do not include shape shifting across species.
