Will Farmed Frogs Satisfy Huge Appetites for Frog Meat?
Despite the world’s dwindling frog populations, the demand for frog meat is increasing. Should a sustainable approach to wild frog harvesting be considered or could frog farming be a viable alternative to harvesting wild frogs?
A study out late last year points out that the overharvesting of wild frog populations for food is contributing to the decline of these important amphibians. Since this worldwide appetite for frog meat shows no signs of slowing down, the authors introduce their idea for sustainable wild frog harvesting as an alternative to unsuccessful attempts at commercial frog farming.
