Image of a frog hitching a lift on the back of a snail is a reminder that sometimes it isn’t a bad thing to take things easy
Originally published by The Telegraph, our Picture of the Week shows a Japanese tree frog riding on top of a snail in a lake in West Borneo, Indonesia.
Given snails travel at just 0.03 mph, Kermit truly wasn’t in a rush but this stunning image, taken by Harfian Herdi, 28, is a reminder to us all that sometimes it’s wise to take things at a slower pace.

Thank you Matthew for warming the cockles of my heart with ultra-cute pic. Nature is beautiful and I have witnessed in Africa many other breath-taking examples of varying species fraternising, even adult animals kindly adopting lone orphans from a different animal race.
