![]() ![]() As this snake gets bigger, its food choice changes from fish to frogs. Water snake’s foods are fish and amphibians, including frogs and toads. They are at risk also for swimming snakes like water moccasins and garter snakes. Reptiles to are part of their diet, and sadly, even frogs are not exempted. Their prey is mammals like rats, mice, squirrels, voles, and rabbits. Some of the birds are hornbills, hawks, eagles, and owls. Unfortunately, frogs end up in their bellies. They possess amazing eyesight then strikes the prey with precision and quickness. Other birds include geese, swans, ducks, ravens, hawks, crows, and gulls.Īvian birds look down from above to look for food. There is a tiger, night and typical herons. Their wings are broad, and their bills are pointed. These birds stand with their neck bent like an ‘S shape.’ As they fly, their legs are trailing loosely while their heads are held back against their bodies. ![]() They build their nests in trees and bushes near the body of water. Herons eat aquatic animals like fish and frogs as they wade in pools, marshes, and swamps. Big bullfrogs may survive the smaller birds but not the Herons. Birds living near freshwater survive on tadpoles and smaller frogs. They are surrounded by reptiles and birds. Living in the fresh biomes gives a threat to frogs and tadpoles. However, in long runs, stalking or ambushing is commonly used. It is more efficient, but hunting is more effective when the predator is faster than its prey. Non-fast moving predators use this method. These predators just quietly hide and strikes. They catch their prey with strategy or stealth instead of strength or speed. A type of predator is called the ambush predator. It has to improve its speed, poison, camouflage, sense of smell, hearing, and sight, and more. In the same way, prey has to make sure it will not be eaten. These are having good speed, camouflage, sense of sight and smell, stealth, hearing, immunity, and appropriate mouth part for digestion. Whether they like it or not, predators must undergo important changes just to eat the prey. They prey is always a big part of the predator’s environment. Meanwhile, the animals hunted and eaten are called prey.īoth the prey and predator go through evolution. Some animals are predators and scavengers. Some examples of predators include cats, snakes, crocodiles, sharks, whales, and more. These predators can be carnivores and omnivores. This always leads to the death of the prey, and the prey ends up being eaten. They could keep their prey dead or alive before they are eaten. Predators are animals that hunt, catches, and eat other animals. Predation entails action and a relationship between two creatures. In other words, there are many predators ready to attack and eat them. In the rainforest, frogs are seen as tasty snacks to animals eating meat. In each stage, the frog’s life is vulnerable to predators. Each frog undergoes a process of transformation. In the freshwater, frogs play an important role. Despite having defense mechanisms and escaping strategies, there are frogs who don’t survive and serve as a meal for other animals. Unfortunately, they are found at the bottom. On the other hand, frogs become food for other animals. They do this by sinking their eyes through the skull’s opening in order for the food to be forced down the throat. Instead, they make use of their eyes to swallow the food. In eating, frogs swallow the whole food since they have no teeth that would grind and cut the food into pieces. Still, the majority of frog species eat insects. In the case of frogs, they are fed mostly on snails, insects, worms, small fish, and spiders while bigger frogs go for bigger prey. Mostly a predator’s prey is something smaller than its size, but some small predators eat bigger prey too. ![]()
