Frogs may be cute.... until you are near its size.. then you may be glancing at the ultimate predator.

I dunno. I believe that Man has earned the unquestionable rights to that label.

i recently had a pond change around, now my pond was 8 ft x 10 feet, with a total capacity of 3000 ltrs approx, in that pond i caught 162 frogs ! now these must have been vegitarian frogs as they had no impact whatsoever on the slug population of my garden !!!

It is my understanding that only toads eat garden slugs.
