A case of    Oligodon   ocellatus    eating a toxic adult toad,    Duttaphrynus   melanostictus   , in Cat Tien National Park, southern Vietnam, is provided. We found a kukri snake having buried its head deeply into the abdomen of the toad and probably being in the process of eating organs. Subsequently, the toad was swallowed whole and the kukri snake moved away and disappeared with the toad’s hind feet still visible from its mouth. It is hypothesised that the behaviour of eviscerating or piercing anurans to eat their organs has been developed in the    O.   cyclurus    species group or clade. This has now been observed in three species.

Yet another kukri snake piercing an anuran abdomen:    Oligodon   ocellatus    (Morice, 1875) eats    Duttaphrynus   melanostictus    (Schneider, 1799) in Vietnam
