Great shot!! What happens to the snake generally when they eat the cane toad? I know here in Oz a lot of native animals die when they eat the introduced cane toad. Some animals have learned to flip it over and eat it and thereby avoiding the poison glands.

Thanks for the compliment! From what I've read, garter snakes can handle the poison. I haven't seen a dead snake :-)
