RE: Childhood & Catching Frogs

in #animals7 years ago

I can remember catching toads at summer camp when I was young; a pleasure my children haven't yet had, on account of living in the city. Incidentally, whenever someone mentions catching frogs or toads, it brings to mind one particular incident where I caught a tiny toad and put it into a little box, which I put into the back pocket of my shorts. I forgot about it, and was later devastated to discover a dead and completely flat baby toad when I emptied my pockets before changing into pyjamas. Horrifying at the time, but funny 30 years later.

Oooooo! Well... Unforgettable life lesson learned on that one! Some mistakes you never make twice, lol! Im sorry for your ( & the frog's) trauma. But thanks for sharing the story ;)

Nope, never made the mistake of putting a toad in my pocket again. Lol

Is that your pet? I want one.
