Rm2.oo for 6 Anurans

--Back home in Msia--H^Io

I was so frog hungry i got up this morning wanting to buy some frogs. My dad and i went to the shop and started shopping for the frogs. There were 2 aquariums, filled with frogs. The smaller ones were RM0.25 while the larger ones were RM0.50 each.
We got 4 small ones and 2 bigger ones. Then, i asked the auntie who sold the frogs to us what the common name of the frog was. She went, oh..qing wa lo, (frog lo)..oh, niu wa..na zhong yang da liao ren jia zhai chai kuan ci de (bullfrog, the type people eat, at restaurants).--> thanks auntie, the restaurant part was abit TOO MUCH info, haha..

I was so blur i was trying to figure wat "niu wa" was. The first thing that came to my mind was snail frogs, dunno why.

Had a great time with them, presenting the best looking frog of the crop.
Think it looks like a Randall. Species : Rana catesbeiana


And friends
