Como se dice una tan pequeña rana no es suficiente para un tan grande cocodrilo a su medio diente, pero me parece que a pesar de esto esta rana va a ser el aperitivo.

As it is said such a small frog is not enough for such a large crocodile to its half tooth, but it seems to me that despite this, this frog is going to be the appetizer

". . .to its half tooth": Is this an idiom that I'm unfamiliar with? - AnnRon, Sep 26, 2017
The Spanish version returns no hits either Ann. Is this a Hungarian saying Porcu? - jellonz, Sep 26, 2017
..."una rana tan pequeña ...un cocodrilo tan grande.. :) - 00376109, Sep 26, 2017
Yes it is a hungarian saying - porcupine7, Sep 27, 2017

Doesn't this also apply to the "faux pas" discussion we had a few days ago? - AnnRon, Sep 26, 2017

¡Realmente espero que la rana pueda escaparse del peligro antes de que sea demasiado tarde! ¡Parece que el cocodrilo ésta a punto de cerrar la boca y creo que tiene mucha hambre! ¡Date prisa, ranita....salta inmediatamente!

Alternative translation: ¡Espero mucho que la rana tenga éxito en escaparse del peligro antes etc...

Que la rana tenga éxito. Escaparse del peligro - Polenta 2 hrs ago

Muchas gracias por tus correcciones, Polenta smile

I really hope (I hope very much) that the frog manages to escape (succeeds in escaping) from danger before it is too late! It seems that the crocodlle is about to close his mouth and I think that he's very hungry! Hurry up, little frog... jump out, immediately!

Corrijan mi español si es necesario, por favor smile

Debe ser Photoshop una rana no se sentaría en la boca de la lagartija. It must be Photoshop a frog would not sit in the mouth of a lizzard.

A reptile really .... a lizard is usually smaller! ;) - FELIZ77, Sep 26, 2017
It's a stunt frog. - DonBigoteDeLaLancha, Sep 26, 2017
Lizzard is an archaic spelling of lizard Goos, which is possibly apt as historically they believed crocs were big lizards. Interesting trivia - Alligator is derived from Spanish: El lagarto - Lizard. - jellonz, Sep 26, 2017

El programa especial de los animales grandes comen animales pequeños; Si PBS (televisión pública) no lo hace, ¿quién lo hará?

The big animals eat little animals special; if PBS (public television) doesn't do it, who will?
