What the fuck is wrong with you – do you have any idea how fucked up this is? Quit torturing some poor frog because you want some huge badass animal.

I have no idea why you’re torturing and killing the poor frogs, please stop doing it.

I am far away, so they cannot do me anything. Besides, no one really cares about little amphibians. People haul fish out of the water everyday to suffocate to death, and no one cares. People chop frogs alive to eat them, and no one cares. I don’t defend my actions, just point out how many times amphibians have been killed inhumanely and no one gives a shit.

Since the topic of the thread is moot, as the OP said he will not be force-feeding anymore frogs in his care, and the discussion is (understandably) veering into Pit territory I’m closing this.
