The frog on the back of the snake. (Armin Gerlach)
Of all the startling images to have come out from the Queensland floods, this has to be the most unusual — a green frog hitching a ride on the back of a brown snake.

It appears animals often help each other out during disasters. According to an article on the ninemsn website, "it's quite common when you have animals in floods or fires or disasters, they actually get together and don't do anything [to harm each other]" .

I think we humans have a lot to learn!
