He's miffed by the suggestion that somebody would tamper with nature -- especially him, an adjunct teacher with the California Academy of Sciences -- for political gain.

They've also raised suspicion among some in this seaside hamlet who wonder whether project opponents planted the frog just before a crucial environmental review.

Suspicion? Under these circumstances, I would consider the appearance of the frog as a "plant" until proven otherwise. The burden of proof is on those who purportedly "found" the frog.

When is some Republican California lawmaker in Sacramento going to author an "Environmental Fraud" bill? Never mind, I just remembered, California doesn't have a Republican Party!

I'll bet the endangered garter snakes eat those tasty red-legged frogs!

There was a big row over the giant garter snake here in sacto living on land across from Arco Arena that was pegged for development. End result.....full and complete development has occurred anyway.

Necessity and money will trump the ecowacko's everytime....eventually!

Five years ago, when they were building the BART extension to the San Francisco Airport, an enviroweasel discovered a squished salamander on the construction site. A judge promptly halted activity for months, then allowed it to continue as long as trucks were speed-limited to ten MPH on the site. Speed was radar enforced. Net result: project ran over a year late and almost 100% over budget.

Meanwhile, a few yards away, Caltrain ripped along at 79 mph, as did the Southern Pacific before it for more than a century...

endangered San Francisco garter snake

ARE YOU KIDDING ME??

I wouldn't be surprised at all that this "frog" is a plant.

Environazis would never plant frogs, or lynx hair, or eagle feathers, or harvest mice, or snail darters or pike. Nor would they ever lie about spotted owl, or fuel load. They are too ethical.

Oh yes, and those fires they started, that was accidental.

Lying in wait, khakis waist deep in water, camera at the ready, Giorni says he encountered a California red-legged frog on a piece of Half Moon Bay property slated for one of the biggest developments the coast has seen in two decades.

Gasp! You don't say! What a shockingly propitious coincidence.

It would seem that this case has lynx with others we have seen.

Isn't the California red-legged frog the one you raise in the 'other' room for snacks during the NASCAR races. Fried frog legs are grrrreat!
