Hey everyone, Sgt.Frog here!
Have you seen the metamorphosis process of a frog before?
If you haven’t, you can get some tadpoles here at the farm and see the the metamorphosis in action up close!
The Metamorphosis set will include four tadpoles, a tank and a container of frog feed. I’ll also explain on how to care for them!
I’ll also talk about what to do and not do when having a American Bullfrog as a pet. You’ll be amazed by how the process of metamorphosis takes place before your very eyes!
Now I’ve had many people asking me this before. “Can I buy some live American Bullfrogs to set free?”
My answer to you is a big NO.
I know that some people have a practice of releasing animals into the wild for good karma.
But if you’re gonna try buying our live American Bullfrogs and then releasing them into the wild of Singapore. I can guarantee you that not only you won’t get a speck of good karma but instead you’ll be getting lots of bad karma in return for sure. Plus you’ll get arrested by the authorities.
Why is it so bad? Basically these American Bullfrogs are classified as one of the top 100 Invasive Species in the world.
Now what are Invasive Species? These are species that are not native to an environment and are able to cause a lot of harm and damage to the ecosystem. Since these American Bullfrogs originated from North America, they are big and strong creatures being able to reach up to 20 cm long from snout to the vent and weight about 1 kg.
And their diet? Anything goes. As long as the American Bullfrog can fit the animal in it’s mouth, it’s food. Now the native animals we have here in Singapore aren’t all as big as the American Bullfrog. Since they can’t retaliate back, they’ll be eaten and forced to extinction by these American Bullfrogs.
Now if the food chain of the ecosystem in Singapore is broken, several of the animals in Singapore will be affected. For example, if these American Bullfrogs ate all the insects like grasshoppers or caterpillars, there won’t be enough food for the local frogs and toads in Singapore. These out-competed local frogs and toads will starve and might even end up being extinct. This means they’ll be gone forever!
So if you’re planning to get some tadpoles here at the farm, be sure to be responsible for them.
If you’re unable to take care of them anymore, you can either return the tadpoles/frogs back to us at the farm or pass them over to another responsible person to take care of them. Never release these tadpoles and frogs into the wilds of Singapore!
