Bat Eating a Frog, Barro Colorado Island, Panama, 2007
Photograph by Christian Ziegler
A fringe-lipped bat on Panama's Barro Colorado Island holds a Tungara frog in its powerful jaws. This bat's extra-large ears help it detect frogs from the sound of their mating calls, even distinguishing the songs of edible species from those of toxic ones.

OH MY GOODNESS!!! That is the craziest picture I have ever seen. Is this stock photo or you really captured this? If you did Congratulations cause this is an awesome pic. You should post it on this new travel site I found - baraaza.com.
