Frogs legs nearing extinction!

[RPCookin]

and what happens to the frog bodies? just throw them away?

We tossed them in the water where the turtles, fish, and crayfish would take care of any further disposal.

I've a fish pond, where I raise bluegill & catfish..frogs are
numerous here & occasionally have frog-legs for supper..
Certainly no evidence of extinction...however I can see
a commercial trend that would suggest it...probably a
supply/demand thing as anything raised for profit would
be affected...they are a very tender white meat with a light
fishy flavor....I like them fried on occasion.............BH51..

This is good news....Can you tell me the location of some of these commercial Frog Farms??? It's been a while since I've had a good mess of frog legs...Delicious!

I was just thinking the same thing, UB! I would love to get my hands on some.

There was a restaurant in Hammond, Indiana called Phil Smidt's that used to specialize in them. We went out there a couple of times a year to enjoy the frogs legs.

They used to be a big specialty in France, but nowadays those served in France are imported from Hungary.

Gahan Wilson captured the overwhelming sadness of the situation in this poignant sketch:

I remember this cartoon - saw it, I believe, in Reader's Digest probably two decades or more ago. Hilarious!
