Can YOU find the potato in this sea of adorable hamsters?

  • Dudas confounded the internet with a panda hiding among snowmen 

One is a favorite childhood pet and the other is a kitchen staple, but can you tell the difference between the two when a potato is hidden in a crowd of hamsters? 

That's what Mashable's Watercooler wanted to find out in the latest image to join the Where's Waldo-esque craze of drawings with hidden images currently sweeping the internet. 

The illustration, created by Max Knoblauch, features a number of hamsters in various states of happiness, with a few dressed up in wacky costumes to throw off guesses.

There's bridal hamster, complete with a veil and a smile, a rodent in a red clown nose, and one even wearing a Mets jersey. 

But nestled behind two hamsters that aren't dressed up at all is the potato in the fourth row from the bottom and four spots from the right. 

In another Knoblauch illustration, the reader is challenged to find Doc Brown, Christopher Lloyd's character in the Back to the Future films, amid dozens of Bernie Sanders.

But people may find this one a little easier, as Doc Brown's circular glasses are a dead giveaway in the sea of Sanders. 

Hungarian cartoonist Gergely Dudas is to credit for the surging trend of sweet and silly illustrations sweeping the internet and asking people to find the likes of eggs, pandas and owls. 

Dudas most recently released an Easter-themed image that disguised an egg among a cluster of bunnies. 

The image was shared more than 7,000 times after Dudas posted it on his Facebook page last week.

As it typical with his drawings the cartoonist, who goes by the name of Dudolf, has thrown in a few red herrings to keep those trying to solve the puzzle distracted.

One of the rabbits wears a top hat, two others hold a tin of paint while a fourth munches on a carrot, drawing the eye away from the real prize - the elusive egg.

The peach-colored egg is actually located towards the left hand edge of the drawing, two rows up from the bottom, hiding behind a white rabbit's head.

Since being posted on hid Facebook page on Friday morning the image has attracted almost 4,000 likes and has been shared more than 2,000 times

Dudas, or Dudolf as he is known when drawing, spawned the Where's waldo-style internet puzzle craze back in December last year when he asked fans to find the panda hidden in these snowmen

Jan Josleyn wrote: 'I am always very good at these but ... I sure can't say that NOW. this one almost got the best of me!'

Meanwhile Peggy Prawdzik praised the artist, saying: 'Dudolf - You're the smile this world needs. Thanks for your posts!' 

Dudolf first found fame in December last year with his drawing of a crowd of snowmen with a panda hiding in their midst that was shared hundreds of thousands of times.

Capitalizing on his new-found fame, Dudolf quickly followed up  with this image of wide-eyed owls, this time challenging people to find the cat concealed among them

The Where's Waldo-style cartoon was quickly followed up by another featuring cats and owls, before several imitators added their contributions.

Reddit user Oneste stuck with the panda theme, but this time drew the fuzzy creature hiding among a group of Stormtroopers to mark the release of Star Wars: The Force Awakens.

There amongst Imperial troops including Stormtroopers, Speeder Biker riders and Snowtroopers, is a single panda with the same black and white colouring as the other figures. 

Then, in February this year to mark Oscar season, illustrator Michael Rogalski hid a golden statuette among a group of C3PO droids from the Star Wars films and drove the internet mad looking for it. 

The key to tracking the elusive feline down proved to be the difference between the owls' beaks and the cat's Y-shaped mouth (pictured)

The popularity of Dudolf's illustrations quickly spawned imitators, including illustrator Michael Rogalski who tasked people with finding the Oscar among these C3POs
