Default Snake in my pond.

Just saw a snake grab a frog. I jiggled the rock it was hiding under and

I
guess shook the snake up because the frog. which was nabbed by the foot,
got away. There is a gray portion near its foot and another on its body
that looks like it is where the snake also had its mouth. Didn't see any
broken skin. Although, come to think of it, there was some red around

the
place on the body when the frog swam away.

Think it was a garter snake. If I am remembering right it was a fairly
bright green with yellow stripes the length of its body. The top of its
head was also green.

It all happened so fast that I am not positive.

How can I get rid of it without tearing all the rocks out. Does anyone
know?


I had the same situation. The snake had the frog half in it's mouth, and the
frogs innards were hanging out of the snake's mouth. I touched the snake,
thinking he'd just keep eating. Instead he spit the frog out and went under
water. A few minutes later he came up and stuck his nose up, and stayed very
still.

The next day, he was gone, and we've never seen him again. Also haven't seen
many frogs...Hmm.
