My "lame" frog =(

Yesterday morning, on the way back home from breakfast, we saw a wounded frog in the middle of the road. Initially, i didnt see it. My dad pulled over the car and guarded the road while i retrieved the poor little frog from the middle of the road. It was the road leading to my house, in my neighbourhood.

I grabbed a plastic bag from the back seat and grabbed the fellow. It was a wounded banded bullfrog Kaloula pulchra. When i got home, i examined the frog and found out it was quite badly injured. I do not know how. But it was really bad. Here is a picture of it.

It was so badly injured it couldnt even hop. it was limping, therefore suggesting its lameness. Suddenly, i felt so much for it i didnt know what to do. I wish i could do something to make it feel better.

Then, later at night, i decided to nurse it myself. I took some grandmother oilment my mom's colleague got from Penang (which we fondly call Magic Oil) and some cotton buds. I applied it onto the wounds of the frog, making sure it does not affect our friend's other remaining working systems. It was still and oblidging when i was being a frog-doctor wannabe. I then, decided to let it rest at some random pot in the garden to recuperate, making it seem like a anuran ward. I thought it might be better if it was free rather than being cooped up in a white bucket, which i kept it previously.

Hope the frog's doing fine. And Magic is working from that 'amah' oil.
