Mission Impossible - don't bite off more than you can chew

            The snake was trying to eat this catfish, but they will both lose this battle.  If the snake manages to swallow the catfish, it will not be able to digest it and the catfish will open its gills once inside the snake and will kill the snake, both will eventually die (according to an old Cajun).  You shouldn't bite off more that you can chew. Note that the catfish and snake were partially submerged and partially out of the water, you can see the catfish's eye in the reflection of the water.
