I saw a YouTube video where one swallowed a rabbit. Funny thing, when they swallow furry animals such as a rabbit or a vole, they go to a puddle or other water feature and dip it in the water before attempting to swallow.


Wow. I did not know GBH's ate anything other than fish!

Another big for the eye to eye in #2!!


Thank you Chief. I guess fish do not have eyelids to shut when confronted with scary situations.

They will eat just about anything they can catch and swallow including frogs, snakes and crayfish.

Looks that way. But empathy was not at play!

I don’t know how they do it. I watched one work at downing a large catfish for twenty minutes.

One could reverse the sequence and make it a success story. But that is not what happened. :-)

Comments and critiques welcome.


Wonderful sequence, Ronnie!
