gtsalmonDescripción
A young adult Rio Grande Leopard Frog having its leg swallowed by a Western Ribbonsnake (the snake too small to engulf the entire frog). The snake was only large enough to swallow its entire leg. Evidence that this had occurred several times (extensive injury to both legs). I later observed same frog in same situation with a Checkered Gartersnake. Both snakes backed off when observed. This image taken by Toby Bagley.

Serpiente de Tierra Haldea striatulaObserv.
gtsalmonDescripción
Young adult found dead in recessed, uncovered well box (about 4' deep). Likely fell in and could not get out. Other occupants were a Rio Grande Leopard Frog, Western Ribbonsnake and a Checkered Gartersnake. The Checkered Gartersnake was observed attempting to swallow the leg of the RGLF (it was too small to consume the entire frog). The RGLF was of medium size and could have been to COD to the Rough Earth Snake (but too small to consume it completely). Limited food supply to trapped individuals. Living occupants were liberated.
