Well, here's something that deserves a double take: a White's tree frog (Litoria caerulea) climbing a large green tree python (Morelia viridis).
After reading reports that the pair were 'unlikely friends in a zoo enclosure,' we tracked down photographer Fahmi Bhs to get the real scoop.
"I did not shoot these in a zoo," explains Bhs. "The owners of these animals often participate in community gatherings to focus on the welfare of the species. They conduct an exhibition and discussion on how to treat these animals properly."
Putting odd animal couples together is admittedly not our favourite thing, but interestingly a number of zoos do house these two species together.
"I was worried that the snake would swallow the frog," says Bhs. "But the keeper assured me this kind of [interaction] usually happens during the gathering."
Australia's Cairns Tropical Zoo, for example, will keep up to five frogs in their tree python exhibit at any given time.
"Because the majority of their diet is made up of birds and small mammals, [captive tree pythons] don’t view frogs as being a source of food," explains Cairns' Reptile supervisor Alex Mitchell.
Though this is undoubtedly a case of cohabitation rather than animal BFFs, the photos are still pretty stunning ...
