countries, conservationists warn
The EU imports about 4,070 tonnes of frogs'
legs per year, Pro Wildlife claims
This increasingly threatens
frog populations in Indonesia,

I’d have thought they’d be pretty easy to farm… they reproduce in massive numbers (hundreds of tadpoles per frog) because the tadpoles and young fronts are at risk from predators (birds especially) … so if you can create them an enclosed environment protected from predators, the numbers will explode very quickly Id have thought?

I don’t think I’d be a fan of them personally. that said, I’ve not actually tried one… maybe they’re amazing…

Seems to cook better than say a chicken leg

Frogs legs taste ok, but it's probably the garlic more than anything.

Hard to see frogs running out to be honest...especially with no back legs

[Crimson Dynamo]

They will have to a tighter control on owning Frogs, need to issue a kermit

I’d agree on the farming frogs point ... each pairing produce up to 2,000 tadpoles!!

Because it's about frogs would be my guess :laugh:

Because it's about frogs would be my guess :laugh:I was talking about in general, not just this thread.

I made a thread about sausages and there wasn't one Miss Piggy joke. There were jokes but not Miss Piggy ones.

Because making jokes about fictional frog dudes is one thing, but no way the wokeys would dare make bacon jokes about a thicc fictional swine woman.

They are due to so many Germans liking that food.

Indonesia wants their supply
and will pay more

[user104658]

Alf I just looked up the sausages thread and you’ll be happy to know that 4 of the first 6 post are sausage/pork/pig related puns.

No Miss Piggy ones to be fair.

I just wish people would leave animals alone,surely there is plenty more other foods to eat.
