Talk about a snake with style! This Grass Snake from Liguria, Italy is rocking the latest fashion trend - a stunning blue eye. But don't be fooled by its mesmerizing gaze, because this slithery beauty is shedding its skin and ready for a fresh start. In this photo print, we witness nature's drama unfold as the Grass Snake indulges in an exotic feast - a Balkan Frog. It seems like this introduced species didn't stand a chance against our hungry predator! With summer vibes in full swing, it's no surprise to see these two European creatures crossing paths in Capanne di Marcarolo Regional Park. The snake's Eurasian origins clash with the frog's Asian roots, creating an unexpected encounter that Mother Nature herself would applaud.

It's clear that when it comes to survival of the fittest, this reptile knows how to make quick work of its meal. So next time you're out exploring wildlife wonders in Italy, keep your eyes peeled for extraordinary sights like this one captured by FLPA photographer Emanuele Biggi.
