Why You Don’t Want Bullfrogs

Carol claims Bullfrogs do not eat fish. If you’ve seen the Discover Channel special on Bullfrogs you find out they eat just about anything and everything. Like a snake, they can stretch to eat things as big as themselves!

I’ve included a link to the full article at the end of this excerpt. The 3 mile thing makes me worried our bullfrog may come back.

Why you don’t want a bullfrog in your pond

1. Bullfrogs eat desired wildlife like birds, small

mammals, dragonflies, butterflies, native

frogs, fish and turtles.

2. Bullfrogs reproduce prolifically. One egg mass

will typically contain thousands of eggs.

Bullfrogs spread to neighboring wetlands

and gardens. The thousands of eggs hatch

into thousands of tadpoles, and the tadpoles

transform into thousands of juvenile bullfrogs,

which may disperse as soon as the rainy

season starts. Some of these frogs travel

over 3 miles in search of a new home.

3. Bullfrogs, unlike native leopard frogs, have a

loud call that may disturb you or your

neighbors at night.
