Short Communication
<div style="text-align: justify;"><span style="color:#000000;"><span style="font-size:14px;">We present a natural history account of the first record of probable predation on the Indian bull frog, <em>Hoplobatrachus tigerinus</em> by the Asian House Shrew, <em>Suncus murinus</em> from Morang district, Nepal. The present communication provides an example of a nearly equal-sized predator-prey interaction in a natural ecosystem and provides interesting information on the natural history of these taxa.</span></span></div>
