This boy lives on a snakefarm in the Gambia. Behind him are the cages where the snakes are usually kept. When I visited the farm, the cages were empty although. Colonnes of army-ants had eaten the majority of the snakes.

    This picture is amazing, right now though all I can think of is your narrative and snake eating ants
