Some people out there may be what you call connoisseurs of frog legs. They find the taste and texture of amphibians legs to be appealing in some way and may even go 'frog gigging' as it were to get the legs...er...fresh.   While I say, whatever floats your boat; you might want to look for other appetizing meals to satisfy your palette in the future. Why? The frogs are rapidly disappearing, along with all the other amphibians in the world! You may already be feeling the after effects of this rapid depletion of amphibian as the prices of frog legs are going up.   That delicacy is getting a lot pricier these days because frogs have be hit hard by not only human interference, due to chemical pollution and encroachment on their natural environment, but also by a series of devastating viruses that have spread through the population killing many frogs. If you want to get frog's legs in the future you just may have to turn to frog farming. It's not as crazy as it sounds folks.   There are people in the world who much like pearl farmers, have turned to agriculture to sustain the world's hunger for frog legs. Frog farming is more expensive and that cost must be passed onto the consumer, but it may end up saving the frog species of the world in the wild. Or at least preserving them, if only on artificial swamps where the bullfrogs hop around 'free range' style, eating flies until they are big enough to harvest. One frog farming swamp claims to grow bullfrogs as big as one and a half pounds!   Just so you know, in the future frog farmers may be turning to hybrids to create frogs that are as big as 20 pounds each!   Source: http://network.nationalpost.com/np/blogs/theappetizer/archive/2009/01/09/last-legs-for-frog-legs.aspx
