Leave Me Alone!!

Froggie makes his point quite nicely. :frog:

That was hard to watch. I felt that creature had something very wrong with it.

Strange, I didn't know frogs screamed --- I think it was threatened and frightened at being tormented, poor thing.

 

[Carla]

Oh my gosh, I have never seen or heard a frog like that, I'd be running away!

It was a video taken in Cape Town South Africa by a family who was walking in the woods with their dog when they happened upon the frog. Some South African frogs will puff up and scream when they feel threatened in an attempt to scare off their predators. If I thought the frog was sick or being tormented I would have never posted it, it looked like they got their short video and then went on their way.

Here's a smaller frog puffed up and screaming.

This is how I feel when people try to insist I do something I don't want to do!

Thanks for clearing that up SB. The frog look deformed to me and I thought it was sick or something but now I know better.

WOW! If that didn't make you leave it alone, nothing would!!!

They're both piteous and terrifying at the same time.

Red Fox, if I hear this while camping now, I'll know what it is.
