The key to good camouflage is jpeg compression

I say it should be illegal to incorporate the word "snow" in the names of things that are not white.

Many animals that live in temperate climates change colors every year.

It's not the case of this one. I just wanted to point that many do :)

(Now, seriously, gray and white are probably a very good disguise in places where the snow doesn't take over everything all the time.)

They live in areas that are covered by snow for at least part of the year, such as the Himalayas, Tibet and parts of Central Asia and Mongolia. The animal itself can vary in colour from cream to grey or tan.

Okay I’m sure it’s much easier to recognise it irl with depth perception
And ESPECIALLY without JPG compression™

Yeah, and the scale of the picture itself is hard to determine. You don’t know how big the thing you’re looking at is, so you don’t know if you’re supposed to see just a paw, the entire creature, etc.

Right under the snow patch on the top you can see the face.

Just beside the perfectly focused rock wall on the left, yes, it's that blurred thing

It's brown, right below the big snow bank at the top

It's staring right at the camera between a jumble of compressed jpeg artifacts.

One of which seems to have eaten a quarter of its head. Very impressive how they have evolved to take advantage of JPEG compression for camouflage!

To be fair, the (apparently) huge icicles throw off the sense of scale.
