I have a frog orgy going on in my garden pond at the mo. it's quite gross.  They come from miles around, just wondering if they were all born there..?

Frogs may return to where they were born to mate, it depends on many factors. Of course, if they always returned to the same place generation after generation the inbreeding would be horrific, so most frog species disperse- it might only be one sex, but when they become frogs brothers and sisters are competing with each other for food so it is their best interest to find "new ground"- if they find a good pond, they will stay there and breed. You are very lucky to have a frog orgy in your back yard- it indicates a healthy environment.

well I am from Hawaii where it rains alot. I mean alot. In fact the island next to where I am from is the wettest land mass on the planet. Now the tuba is not a very common instrument in the state of Hawaii, however.......I can not get into the specifics of the story (to protect the Innocent) but the answer is yes it does sound like a wet fart.....oh and Mike P...Your and A$$hole. No wonder your mom is the only one sending you valentines cards.

Naugty like the devil! I guess.  LOL!\n\nWe did see a National Geographic show that the mating techniques of a frog may have been the Horny Toad. But like once a year they "did it " constantly.

I doubt that anyone would really be able to answer that unless he or she just so happened to work there.  I suggest calling or e-mailing someone from the aquarium.

I don't know about George Clooney but Brad Pitt is from the Midwest.  From Missouri, to be exact.  I'm from Mo. and we get a lot of "Hey!  I know a guy who went to school w/ Brad Pitt," and "I'm a friend of a friend of a friend who lived down the street from Brad Pitt."  You know, stupid pick-up line crap like that.

In Maryland:\n\nFounding of the town of Springfield\n    [5F02] As early as 1649, the Maryland town of Sprynge-Fielde was inhabited by obvious ancestors of the people of Springfield, the Flanders and the Simpsons.\n\n    [3F13] In 1796, a fiercely determined band of pioneers leaves Maryland after misinterpreting a passage in the bible. Their destination, New Sodom. [4F03] Marge says these pioneers were circus freaks.\n\n        * Jebediah: "People, our search is over. On this site we shall build a new town, where we can worship freely, govern justly, and grow vast fields of hemp for making rope and blankets."\n        * Shelbyville Manhattan: "yes, and marry our cousins."\n        * Jebediah: "What are you talking about Shelbyville? Why would we want to marry our cousins?"\n        * Shelbyville Manhattan: "Cause they're so attractive. I thought that was the whole point of this journey."\n        * Jebediah: "Absolutely not."\n        * Shelbyville Manhattan: "I tell you I won't live in a town that robs men of the right to marry their cousins."\n        * Jebediah: "Well then, we'll form our own town. Who will come and live a life devoted to chastity, abstinence, and a flavorless mush I call rootmarm?" \n\n    [2F22] The town of Springfield was born on that day. And to mark that sweet moment, our people planted this lemon tree. Lemons being the sweetest fruit available at the time. [4F15] In 1797, the town charter was created;\n\n        * [9F10] "...as chief constable, ye shall receive one pig every month and two comely lasses of virtue true."

I doubt very seriously that your city ordinance has a clause which prohibits a frog, especially a native species, from croaking in your yard. Nor can they enact one at will to specificly target you and your guest. Your neighbor on the other  hand can be subpoened to court by you to answer civil complaints regarding his actions as well as be carted off to jail by local police provded they can witness his actions or you can provide evidence such as a video tape of him tossing items in your yard or phone company recocords of repeated calls from his number as well as recorded messages  he leaves on your answering machine. You might aloso check with your states Parks and Wildlife Department and see if that visiting frog is covered by any kindof protected species act, which could assist you greatly in getting political pressure placed upon local authorities to impress upon your neighbor the seriousness of hefty penalties he might face should he decide to erradicate the frog.  Dealing with people like your neighbor is one of the few pleasures associated with my profession.

You are having a lot of issues with run on sentences, passive voice, incorrect apposition, incorrect verb tense and punctuation. You also tend to use words that are redundant to describe things. I've taken an initial pass for you. It very definitely needs further scrubbing, but here's an initial pass.\n\nHerbicide contains two specific ingredients: glyphosate or 2,4D. (WHERE ARE THE TWO?? - you need to specify them with AND)\n\nThese chemicals are commonly used in farms, parks and golf courses.  Farmers and gardeners use the chemicals to kill unwanted plants, but they don’t realize that the chemicals do not stay on the plants. The herbicides are getting into our water, rivers and, subsequently, into the rain. It could kill fish, beavers, frogs and birds. \n\nI found that some researches have proven that weed killer is toxic to the environment. John Struger, a scientist at the Canadian Centre for Inland Waters, analyzed urban streams and detected nine types of herbicides. Tyrone Hayes, the developmental endocrinologist at the University of California at Berkeley, said that over-use of herbicide is directly effecting male tadpoles in the laboratory.  He tested the level used in the environment, and found that this chemical removed the testicles of a male tadpoles, and prevented male characteristics from fully forming. He concluded that herbicide exposure turns the tadpoles into hermaphrodites (creatures with both male and female sexual characteristics). If there are no more male frogs, frog populations will decrease, and, without the frogs to consume them, bug populations will increase.

I've been to the National Arboretum and it is nice.  The Missouri Botanical Garden is the largest in the United States and it is wonderful!\n\nHey Djddan, I now see that you are the one who was asking all of those taxonomy questions.  I am a botanist and that is an area of interest of mine.  If you have any other questions you can reach me at wjlabarre@yahoo.com\n\nBut, I really recommend that book I told you about - "The Variety of Life," by Coin Tudge.  It will clear up a lot for you and give you a broad understanding of classifying organisims.  It's an excellent book.  I looked at the wikipedia site you saw and you were right, it's not that clear.

Well at least your not lubing the small animals and shoving them up your @ss! Seriously, the only thing I'm concerned about is the cleanliness of the animals. Maybe you should start breeding them in a safe and clean environment. Good luck! By the way, stay away from my goldfish!
