They keep wondering if the Beelzebufo came from the PacMan frogs by rafting across from Madagascar, but this seems impossible since the Beelzebufo is much older. Considering that, why couldn't it have worked the other way with the PacMan frogs travelling to South America from Madagascar? That would explain the dates as well as the similarities between them. Of course convergent evolution is possible but the number and complexities that are different than other frogs but exactly the same in Beelzebufo and Pacman kind of rule that out if they were not interbreeding and they obviously weren''t.

How do they compare with a Cane Toad? I understand they get pretty big too. Cane Toad upon seeing Beelzebuffo yells "Hey, It's my little cousin I haven't seen in millions of years. YUM!" BTW, they probably look similar because of parallel evolution. I've read that there were at least 4 different species of big cats that developed the "Saber Tooth" adaptation to kill large animals. Large animals would evolve, Saber tooth cats would then evolve the ability to kill them, the big animals became extinct, the big cats followed. This repeated 4 times until we killed off the big animals and the cats went extinct but we didn't.
