Snake charmer, performing with two Black Cobras. Just before the show, i had a little talk with the poor guy, and he told me they did not have any serum incase of a bite. And it was a 45 minute ride in car to nearest hospital meaning almost certain death if he got bitten. We were 4 viewers and payed pr. person what is around 6$ to watch the 25 minute show. King Cobra, Black Cobra and jumping snake. Filmed just outside Ao Nang, Krabi in Thailand febuary 2007

For all your carnivorous amphibious needs.

my littlest horned frog, Elton, goes after a mouse. his tongue gets stuck to the glass underneath him and his little legs flop up into the air. hilarity ensues. A voracious eater, it will attempt to swallow anything that moves close to its wide mouth, such as insects, small birds and mammals, lizards and other frogs, even if it would suffocate in the process.

I built this terrarium as a welcome distraction during my first year of law school in 1993. It was temperature and humidity controlled, it rained several times a day and the lighting mimicked day and night. It held as many as 20 frog including red eyed tree frogs, cuban tree frogs and green tree frogs. There were both geckos and chameleons. It also had a stream and fish pond. In it I witnessed frog, lizard and, most interestingly, slug sex. All this in a one bedroom apartment. I finally sold it on eBay a few years ago.

They will emit a stress call whenever they are in danger, such as when predators are close or when a person steps on a log in which a frog resides.
