was something moving in the water. As I got closer I realized it was a snake. Then I noticed that the snake wasn't alone. The snake had a big from by its leg. The frog was still alive and was trying to hop away but he could not get free from the snake.

This beautiful, calm, gentle-looking creature had taken my flip flop right off my foot. We have been back…
