Thanks for the fast response.

No I realize I won't win friends with this, but I've devoted acres of my land to local wildlife, including introducing colonies of local amphibians, and I keep a few dozen species of amphibians as well. I only feed the amphibians (from my own ponds, not wild caught) to snakes that haven't been switched to scented food yet, and have fed plenty of small abundant captive born local snakes to my larger amphibians, so it evens out. I even witnessed a large bullfrog make the mistake of grabbing the head of a big watersnake that was swimming by with only the head visible. Boy were THEY both surprised!

Just like frogs. You can't buy Purina Snake Chow, they gotta eat what they eat..

Reminds me of people calling me to complain about a hawk at their bird feeder eating their birds. First of all, not YOUR birds, second, a Hawk IS a bird. You've constructed a food chain, lol! Third grade, 101.

Mostly posted out of curiosity as to whether others have noticed this kind of toxicity variance in various stages, and also as kind of a warning. Until I got a concentrated dose of stressed gray treefrog poison in me, I had NO clue they could be that toxic- I've handled them for years without any serious effects. I'm usually more careful.
