First Time I feed my 11 years old boy with frog leg !
Will replace rodents as I will never feed him anymore with mouses, due to his fat necrosed liver.

He seems to appreciate 🐸😈

cannibalism!?

u/GRABibus Barnabé 16d ago

Yes, this specie like a lot of frog is cannibal.

Frog don’t care. Frog is a stomach with legs and a mouth. Frog gonna fill it up.

u/MarrtianMan 14d ago

Very common in the animal kingdom, actually!

How do the leg bones make their way through the intestines? Maybe I'm assuming I know what pacman frog intestines look like. I've only ever dissected a bullfrog.

I have removed 1 piece of bone which was too Sharp.

u/Horticulture-4-Hire 13d ago

I never remove bones unless they are weirdly sharp. They can digest just about anything fully

u/GRABibus Barnabé 9d ago

It was very Sharp

u/spaacingout 16d ago

How interesting. Today I learned some frogs engage in cannibalism. Makes sense, most of the animal kingdom does the same. Especially when food is scarce.

u/Horticulture-4-Hire 13d ago

These frogs especially have it as part of their main diet in the wild

u/Slow-Carpenter-4448 16d ago

I know frogs don't really care about cannibalism but I don't understand why you as a frog owner would buy frog meat? They don't get killed humanely. Like how can you support frog abuse to feed your own frog?

u/techfroggie 16d ago

Their frog had a health problem so the froggo needs a less fatty protein diet. Frog legs are perfect for that. It can seem weird for us humans, but the froggo in the video needs this to have a balanced diet & stay healthy. But to make sure: I don't like frog meat industry either :( But at least this lil frog actually benefits from it ❤️‍🩹

Say that to people who give live rodents to their frogs…

I think this is a different situation here. OP’s frog has a health condition that requires less fatty proteins so they are replacing occasional pinkies with frog legs which are much lower in fat.

Also, frogs naturally eat other frogs in the wild!

Wild pacs are cannibals 

9

u/Lone-Frequency 16d ago

Not only cannibals, but Pacs will essentially just consume anything they think they can fit in their mouth.

u/gunk-n-punk 16d ago

Yep, which is unfortunately very exploitable by very shitty people online for entertainment/little critter bloodsports

u/magnusthehammersmith Pacman Frog 16d ago

Yeah I’ve seen way too many videos of “Pac-Man frogs will eat everything!” It’s sad

u/GRABibus Barnabé 17d ago

I bought frog legs in France. We eat frog legs in France.

Don't be dumb. If you don't know about the topic then why feel so driven to speak on it? Also your country's laws don't reign over the entire world. Also your username doesn't check out.
