Isn't X. laevis the frog that you can buy in pet stores and aquarium shops? Sure is. They are pretty popular pets and experimental critters because they are hardy and easy to care for. During my undergrad days I had a job as an Animal Husbander to them. We used to tinker with the embryos to test the devlopmental premise of extensile-convergence vs. convergent-extension. Ah the memories!
