Biggest Frog in Britain!

Loved your frog spotted skills, how about one on watching fish? Like the best place to see a leaping salmon.

leaping salmon would be good

Us natives to Kent/East Sussex borders call the Marsh Frog "Hungarian Singing Frogs" ... As a kid I'd cycle past the actual house in the Isle of Oxney where the original imported frogs from Hungary were introduced. Big grass snakes down there, feasting on the introduced Marsh frogs.

[@Chasingscalesspecieshunt]

yes I seen a few grass snakes with big lumps in them!

[@chiffchaff3355]

I caught a Marsh frog once with a common frog in its mouth

I found some Amercan bullfrog tadpoles in a pond connected to the Avon canal. They were about 2-3 times as big as a regular common frog and were muddy brown with little eyes. I've tried looking for more but have had no luck

[@Chasingscalesspecieshunt]

thats interesting as bullfrogs shouldn't be in the UK!

[@Chasingscalesspecieshunt]

Fantastic video. Not a species I have had the pleasure to see. Sadly in the south east wales area common frogs are pretty much a thing of the past, toads are also basically a relic compared to what they were. I'm 34 years old and when I was a lad, in the summer especially if we had had some rain, if I put the patio light on there would be 20 or 30 frogs and toads all just milling around on the patio. We didn't have a pond and our garden was pretty much walled in, and we lived in a residential area. Never ever see them in my area any more......also just to check that was frogging you said you enjoyed at the end wasn't it?? 😂

I think thats what I said would be a very different film if not!

[@ukwildlife]

Nice stuff Jack, something Ive tried to Film a few time but only pulled off once, when I didnt have my Shotgun mic, not that I needed it with their volume! I suspect Ive always timed things just wrong to get them calling

[@Chasingscalesspecieshunt]

they are very loud!

[@paullockett8581]

There's a population of them in Canterbury and District Angling Association's Fordwich, Trenly and Stour Lakes at Fordwich near Canterbury too, noisy things keep at it all night long😂

Apparently somewhere in the UK we also have breeding Moor frogs, which are quite interesting as the males turn bright blue in the mating season. I would like to know where they are living and whether they are at a suitable location or just some roadside ditch. Marsh, Moor and Pool frogs were once native species and only the Pool frogs have survived (boosted by some Scandinavian imports) here in Norfolk. I was wondering if you could track down the Moor frogs and see if they belong to a surviving native population or if they are also reintroductions.

[@Chasingscalesspecieshunt]

I've not heard of moor frogs being wild in the UK so news to me!

[@gavincurnow7930]

Would love to see you track down and film stick insects and scorpions in the wild in Britain

[@Chasingscalesspecieshunt]

I actually have on my other channel Wildlife Exposed TV
