Here we have a Round-tailed Muskrat Learning the Hard Way that "Circle of Life" is not just a Disney song. GBHs can be pretty intense sometimes. I came upon this GBH working hard to get this muskrat down the ol' hatch. Took him about 10 minutes to dine. That included dunking the muskrat in water I guess to make the slide down a little easier. Lake Apopka Wildlife Drive, Florida, USA May 2024.

Ralph took the words right out of my keyboard -- NEVER cease to amaze me with their hunting (and swallowing) abilities! Nice capture.
