Carol claims Bullfrogs do not eat fish. If you’ve seen the Discover Channel special on Bullfrogs you find out they eat just about anything and everything. Like a snake, they can stretch to eat things as big as themselves!
I’ve included a link to the full article at the end of this excerpt. The 3 mile thing makes me worried our bullfrog may come back.
Why you don’t want a bullfrog in your pond
1. Bullfrogs eat desired wildlife like birds, small
mammals, dragonflies, butterflies, native
frogs, fish and turtles.
2. Bullfrogs reproduce prolifically. One egg mass
will typically contain thousands of eggs.
Bullfrogs spread to neighboring wetlands
and gardens. The thousands of eggs hatch
into thousands of tadpoles, and the tadpoles
transform into thousands of juvenile bullfrogs,
which may disperse as soon as the rainy
season starts. Some of these frogs travel
over 3 miles in search of a new home.
3. Bullfrogs, unlike native leopard frogs, have a
loud call that may disturb you or your
neighbors at night.
