A greedy toad found deep in the Peruvian rainforest tried to swallow a hapless bat whole but only succeeded in making itself look like a bizarre mutant animal as it failed to eat its super-sized meal. A quick-witted ranger captured the comic scene, which saw both animals suffer some discomfort but survive

It is not clear if the cane toad (like the one pictured) deliberately lunged at the bat or expected its meal to be slightly smaller, but the creature reportedly clamped its powerful jaws around the furry critter, cramming it into its mouth

A happy ending: Despite almost becoming dinner, the bat escaped unscathed and flew away quickly after its incarceration in the toad's mouth. A short-tailed fruit bat that lives in the Peruvian rainforest is pictured
