Battling Bullfrogs

[Klyde O'Scope]

This really cracked us up this morning...


It reminded us of Belly Bucking. But since the African Bullfrog is one of few species that have teeth, it's pretty serious business (to the frogs).

Missing Zeus---RIP
He was about 1" when I got him and ate everything from fish, roaches, crickets, little snakes, mice and even medium rats.
A time when I didn't take many pictures.. Now I regret not having more.
Thanks for sharing videos--

Yes, that's mentioned in one of the vids!

Clint rated them so high I almost—almost—want one. I just feel I got my fill of amphibians in my pre-teen years.

Yeah! I thought that too.. in my 20, 30s, 40s, and few years shy of 60 but fate or lack of discipline has changed that..
So now only have 3 tadpoles that have not morphed.- 10 baby whites tree frogs, 3 adults and 4 juvies. Not to mention the toads. lol
Thanks again for the video and pics--
