Did you get it right?
Count only connected real deer, not the two flat deer pictures printed on ranger signs.

The Answer
The correct answer is: 11 real deer.
Here is why
- Scan the foreground, clearing, and tree line once from left to right.
- The final scene contains 11 connected real deer.
- The two flat deer illustrations on ranger signs are pictures and do not count.
Why people miss it
Several deer overlap trees and one another, while the two sign pictures resemble distant animals.
