As a photographer, I can so impressed by this photograph. One can live many lifetimes and not get this shot. Bravo Zulu.

I have seen a poster that is similar to this, featuring a heron and a frog with the caption, “Never Give Up”

Here is a link to one version:

Also, if you read the info, it says they were interlocked for at least a couple hours. The photographer did not stick around to wait for the end.

@HaricotVert,

Not all snakes have fangs. They have teeth though

You know another great thing about neatorama is that there are always thoughtful discussions in the comments!!

@ Carl: “both” protecting their eyes?? since snakes have no eyelids I don’t know how you can see the snake protecting its eyes??

Strange… it doesn’t look like the snake’s fangs (assuming it has them) have pierced through.

I wonder if the snake was poisonous. If the snake did poison the frog this was a short but epic battle for survival.

Notice how they’re both protecting their eyes…neat.

I think what we have here, ladies and gentlemen, is an amphibious make-out session of the highest degree.
