Pig Frog

Information about the Pig Frog:

The Pig Frog - also sometimes called the Lagoon Frog or Southern Bullfrog - is an aquatic amphibian found on the edges of lakes, swamps and marshes. It is a member of the family Ranidae or "true frogs." They get their name from their distinctive pointed and pig like nose, along with the distinctive call which sounds like the grunt of a pig. These amphibians are common around the edges of water, in lakes, ponds and ditches, or floating in shallow water. They are mostly active at night. They feed on nearly anything they can swallow such as invertebrates, crustaceans, fish and amphibians. Despite the overall decline of many of the world's amphibians, the Pig Frog's numbers seem fairly stable and they're common in their range. The legs of these frogs are considered delicacies to some, and they are often hunted at night using flashlights and lanterns.
