Moose or cat? Mind-bending optical illusion sparks online debate revealing your dominant brain side

The graphic representing the illusion was tweeted by user Tom Hicks (@thicks713). Along with the image, he included an intriguing explanation: "Which animal you perceive first is not part of the illustration, rather an optical illusion created by your brain," he informed. This image has caused quite a stir among internet users.

Some identified a cat in the image, while others discerned a moose. There were those who swore they couldn't see anything at all, with some only able to identify an animal after squinting or closing one eye. Some viewers needed to adjust their perspective by moving the image further away. Now, it's your turn. What do you see in the image? Which animal did you notice first, and what does that reveal about you?

And what do you discern in the image?

The netizen who shared the image claimed that what you observe offers a glimpse into how your brain operates. It could potentially indicate which of your brain's hemispheres is dominant: the left or the right. However, the author of the tweet didn't offer a detailed interpretation of the graphic. It's unfortunate, as many would have appreciated this insight.

Common belief suggests that individuals with a dominant right hemisphere are more creative and possess artistic abilities. They place importance on intuition, faith, and emotions and often have a vivid imagination.

Conversely, individuals with a dominant left hemisphere exhibit analytical and linguistic skills. They are focused on details and logic and excel in mathematical tasks.
