DAANG FOREST, INDIA: THIS SNAKE certainly had a frog in its throat as it gut-wrenchingly devoured its prey to the astonishment of a passing company director. Stunning pictures show natural food chain in action as the Buff Striped Keelback snake slowly engulfed the Indian Burrowing frog until the hapless amphibian was completely inside the hungry reptile’s mouth. The snake might have been feeling a bit croaky, but it was left in a much better state than the frog who seemed powerless to resist once the snake had latched on to its leg. The images were snapped by local Tapan Sheth (37) at the Daan
