CAIRNS POST (Australia) 01 January 10 Frog eats a snake (Brad Ryan)
Green frogs are a regular sight in Far North Queensland - but rarely making a meal of a snake.
As these photos taken by Ian Hamilton show, the frog is not incapable of experimenting with new predator-prey relationships and dinnertime treats.
Mr Hamilton said his 18-year-old grandson, Brendan Healy, spotted this frog snacking on a brown tree snake in his grandparents’ retirement village garden in Mackay last Sunday night.
“We took some photos, not realising at the time just how unusual it was,” he said.
“There were three other frogs watching as well.”
The frogs usually dine on insects.
It's not the first time a frog has been caught on camera with an appetite for something surprising.
In June a shocked resident snapped a frog devouring a whole bird.
And in October, another frog was filmed in a territorial battle with a snake.
