More froggie cuteness. Alas, no subtitles for the original Japanese, but not really needed.
Video: 3 minutes, 15 seconds
The froggies are planning an amphibious assault on Hawaii again.
An engineer was crossing a road one-day when a frog called out to him and said,
“If you kiss me, I’ll turn into a beautiful princess.”
He bent over, picked up the frog and put it in his pocket. The frog spoke up again and said,
“If you kiss me and turn me back into a beautiful princess, I will stay with you for one week.”
The engineer took the frog out of his pocket, smiled at it and returned it to the pocket. The frog then cried out,
“If you kiss me and turn me back into a princess, I’ll stay with you and do ANYTHING you want. “
Again the engineer took the frog out, smiled at it and put it back into his pocket. Finally, the frog asked,
“What is the matter? I’ve told you I’m a beautiful princess, and that I’ll stay with you for a week and do anything you want. Why won’t you kiss me?”
The engineer said, “Look, I’m an engineer. I don’t have time for a girlfriend, but a talking frog, now that’s cool.”
What state are you in? Looks like a cane toad
Thanks for the ping.
Pic taken in AZ. Tough to identify the creature from web pics.
I read area residents have to take care their dog doesn’t chomp on local toads due to severe toxic reactions.
Sounds like the cane toads then, they're very toxic and will kill dogs. They're invasive too, Florida is getting over run by them.
Sister and brother-in-law lived in Honduras in early 70's (He was from there) and they lost both a German Shepherd and their Dobermann that were poisoned by cane toads.......
