Police in Peru have launched a campaign to save frogs from being turned into an aphrodisiac drink.
'Frogshake' is popular among native Peruvians as a stimulant that enhances male sexual performance.
Police saved 4,000 frogs from being juiced to make the drink in a raid on a warehouse in Lima.
Terra Noticias Populares reports the frogs were packed in boxes and were about to be liquidised.
But they have now released the animals into a nature reserve.
A police spokesman said: "It is our new crusade, to save the frogs from those juice-makers!"

So does this mean that in Peru the great lovers have "frog breath?"

Any comment from the French?

If it weren't for protectionist trade policies, there would be a trade boom between Peru and Germany.

At least these frogs won't have their livers pecked on like the toads from yesterday.
