Men Eat Hogs" is a poem from Wallace Stevens's first book of poetry, Harmonium. It was first published in The Dial in 1922 [ 1 ] and is therefore in the public domain. Snakes Eat Frogs.
An eastern garter snake eating a northern leopard frog (Lithobates pipiens). The majority of the eastern garter snake's diet (~80%) consists of earthworms, though they have a secondary preference (~15%) for amphibian prey (esp. frogs) as well. [7] As they mature, their preference in prey will undergo an ontogenetic shift.
The frog hesitates, afraid that the scorpion might sting it, but the scorpion promises not to, pointing out that it would drown if it killed the frog in the middle of the river. The frog considers this argument sensible and agrees to transport the scorpion. Midway across the river, the scorpion stings the frog anyway, dooming them both.
Then the frogs made a second request for a real king and were sent down a water snake that started eating them. Once more the frogs appealed to Zeus, but this time he replied that they must face the consequences of their request. In later variations of the story, the water snake is often replaced with a stork or heron.

Eating a frog. Garter snakes, like all snakes, are carnivorous. Their diet consists of almost any creature they are capable of overpowering: slugs, earthworms (nightcrawlers, as redworms are toxic to garter snakes), leeches, lizards, amphibians (including frog eggs), minnows, and rodents. When living near water, they eat other aquatic animals.
A few of the larger ones may eat other frogs, small mammals and reptiles, and fish. [160] [161] A few species also eat plant matter; the tree frog Xenohyla truncata is partly herbivorous, its diet including a large proportion of fruit, floral structures and nectar.
