You may remember some months ago I published a photo of two bullfrogs fighting over territory and promised another photo or two. Here’s the moment just before their body slams, as they stared each other down. Eyeball to eyeball, as they were. The water was already just starting to churn as they stared at each other. It was quite a moment. You see photos and videos of magnificent elk and buffalo and moose in rut slamming gearing up to start slamming into each other, but the whole bullfrog body slam is not so well-known.
