New Jersey Wildlife (or how a snake eats an earthworm)

Sarah saw this black bear!
Look in the center of the picture.
Fortunately it was running away.
From Sarah via letter (June 26):
We've seen lots of wildlife. Deer, birds, chipmunks, bears. New Jersey has one bear per square mile, and Jay has seen at least six so far. I haven't seen any, which is ok with me. The most unusual wildlife I've seen is a garter snake eating an earthworm. The snake had the worm by its middle and slowly sucked in the ends from both sides of its mouth!
