Guess the monster

A beautiful example of blending into a different form, this predator usually takes into this typical posture to go undetected from its prey as well as other predators. Coincidentally this pose leads to a particular part of its limbs looking like the frontal feature of a gharial, atleast I feel it to be like that. Lets see if the beauty can be identified based on this frame

Interesting. It does look like the jaw of a gharial :). Is it a grasshopper species? :confused:
