Effects of Predator Species and Size on Prey Escape Success Through the Digestive Tract
Adults of the aquatic beetle Regimbartia attenuata can survive passage through the digestive tracts of six predator (frog) species, including a non‐native bullfrog. Their active movement through the gut likely facilitates their escape through the cloaca, irrespective of predator species or size.

We document predation by the invasive tawny crazy ant (Nylanderia fulva) on adult grasshoppers in a coastal tallgrass prairie, where nearly half of tethered individuals were killed within 24 h, and stable ...

Pond frog as a predator of hornet workers: High tolerance to venomous stings
Abstract Some animals use stingers to repel attackers, and some predators have evolved tolerance to such stings, enabling them to consume venomous prey. For example, social wasps, such as hornets, use modified ovipositors as venomous stingers to inject venom, which can cause intense pain in humans.
