If you hate mosquitos, you’ll love the Indian Bullfrog! This fork-tongued frog from South Asia can wipe out large numbers of mosquito larvae, particularly during their early years as tadpoles. That’s some Baby on Baby crime, right there.

Unfortunately, both adult Indian bullfrogs and their tadpoles can cause significant damage to other frog species, leading to population declines. Of course, these little green hoppers don’t mean harm. Although they’re one of the most abundant species of frog in their native range, Indian Bullfrogs are mostly solitary, hiding out in holes and bushes near freshwater bodies.

During the monsoon season, the dull-coloured males emerge, turning bright yellow and developing blue vocal sacs perfect for producing loud croaking calls to potential mates.
