  1. keeping wild caught frogs is cruel here's why

    ok some wild caught (WC) frogs just die im captivity no real reason it just happens add this the number that die from stress stress related disease then ur hitting quite a high number. also wc frogs have shortened lifespans stress related behavior disorders and tend to get ill easy. wc almost never have a good quality of life its cruel to the animal.

    Frogs arent as easy to keep as some people think, i dunno who this culture has emerged that thinks frogs are as easy to keep as fish but there not they require specific care

    finally disease and parasites are an issue. some frogs carry disease that can be passed onto humans but the main risk is to other frogs. when frogs are placed in a tank together disease can run writhe making both frogs ill and making for an unpleasant environment add this too there lowered immune system due to the stress of being snatched from the wild and u have a recipe for disaster


  2. you don't. the guy in the pet store will catch them for you when you go to buy one. leave wild animals alone!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  3. leave wildlife alone.  if your mom hates frogs, why will she let you bring them into the house?

  4. grab its belly right below the forearms. BUT BE CAREFUL!! If it is a male it has something right there inside him that is a croak organ to show he is single. ....

  5. if ur mom hates them in a pond why would she want them in the house

    but watever just cup them with one hand and pick it up use ur other hand and make a dome with ur hands and take it to the tank or something dont worry its not illegal unless they are protected but no frogs in the us are protected or endagerd

  6. go to the pet store and buy one...tell her you found it outside.

  7. i'm pretty sure its against the law to do that (The Wildlife and Countryside Act 198) u may have to check, but the best way to catch a frog is to cup them in ur hand making sure they are secure
