The unusual method of eating is known as ?pterygoid walking? and is still an open area of research among herpetologists. USA: GRUESOME photographs have revealed a slimy twenty-five-inch snake as it devoured an unlucky toad. Intense photos show the Eastern garter snake as it slithered towards and slowly pulled the snack up its mouth, starting with its leg. Another image has captured the four-inch toad almost fully engulfed by the non-venomous reptile, where they almost look like one monstrous creature. A video has revealed a grotesque shot of the snake as it landed the killing blow. The fascinating close-ups were taken by biologist and herpetologist, Jackson Phillips (25) from Storrs, USA, who took the shot in Connecticut, USA, on a Canon EOS 5D Mark IV.
