Ribbit! Frog All Lit Up by Swallowed Christmas Light

maybe thought it was a firefly

Maybe he just wanted a light snack.

No, it’s E.T. turning on his heartlight.

‘shopped

Personally, I think the frog was pretty bright…

Wouldn’t that cook him from the inside? Those lights can get rather hot.

Frogs legs anyone?

aren’t you worried about peta breaking down your door and pooring blood on your or something.

Cuban tree frogs in Florida are considered an invasive species and it is recommended that they be humanely euthanized if encountered. They eat native Florida tree frogs.

Glowing or not, I always enjoy pictures of frogs. They must be the most colorful species on earth (after the birds, that is). Find an entire gallery of frog pictures here.

nobody cares if you think it is photoshopped.
in my eyes this is an interesting moment in time captured by the creator, no matter the medium used to convey it. i personally love a bright frog photo.

Why is the frog green, teh rest of the lights white and the light inside it red? That’s brilliant! No, really.

The reason the Frog is green, the lights are white, and the glow is red is because, like you and I, that little frog has blood coursing through his body. If you’ve ever held a flashlight up to your fingers you know your fingertips glow a red-ish color (I hope). I highly doubt this is a photoshop piece. He most likely thought he had caught a very lazy lightning bug (firefly to some).

Brilliant Pic! Love the ‘light snack’ pun.. hahahaha!
Still dont get the white lights and red frog part? Photoshop anyone?

SHOPPED! jk very cool pic

he probably thought it was some sort of firefly

LED Tagging anybody?

What a bright frog…um…or maybe – - a not-so-bright frog?

I’d wager that a frog, being cold-blooded would appreciate the small amount of warmth a small incandescent bulb would provide.

Are people really THAT unimaginative and dull to believe that this photo is fake? Some people need to leave their houses more often.

MVGforge”s comment is like one of many I see online ALL THE TIME. Why is everything really cool ASSUMED to be photo shopped? There REALLY are just some neat pictures out there…….don’t be such a sceptic ALL of the time.

All these comments are photoshopped

its a froggy sun bed!

I’m SO glad you told us he made it out alive!

I’m guessing he thought it was a bud light…

mmmmmmmmm……lightbulb

per ove sleen said:
“Frogs being lightweights as reptiles goes”

I think you’ll find frogs are amphibians my friend

Now this something Mrs Vrozos must see. She is terrified of frogs never mind one that is lit up. I will bring this to the next Vrozos clan BBQ…

Clearly he was on a diet and eating Lite.

Well, Mrs Vrozos completely freaked out when she saw the picture of the little guy. Although after a little while the wife of Johnathan Vrozos said he looked cute and she was glad he was on the screen and not our house Xmas lights. Albeit he is a cute guy..

This really happend. True story.

????? ??? ????
wonderfull

hmmm.. i think the bulb will be much cooler than the chillis they eat in cuba !!

Wow..! It’s glad to know that the little living buddy is still alive and kicking after the artificial & nutritionless light food was removed from his/her mouth. I think he had enjoyed the heat came out from the bulb all night long..lol

Rare opportunity. Thanks for sharing this great photo.

A singing, lit up frog would say “You light up my life”?
LAME, huh?

“It’s some kind of delicious biscuit!”

Very cool! Or is it “warm”

great photo.
maybe the frog thought its a firefly HAHAHA

Ya should of gave the frog/toad a lick. Seriously you’d likey have hallucinated like ya just done five hits of the old “chocolate pinhead” acid from the late sixties, early seventies.

I tasted the lights. They taste the same regardless of color. hmmm? Gotta volt. see ya

k, O med dog

Has this bloody thing come through????
I’m a guy in Cleveland who’s not had mail in years. Please respond?

If you think this is painful, you ought to see his day job!

You should have turned on the audio….I could swear I heard him humming, “You light up my life!”

Should we post this as AN Alternative Christmas….after all, for too long, the holiday has been dominated by elves, reindeer, snow bears, etc. Why not a Christmas frog? Uhm. I guess the picture answers its own question.

Science question….will the light get warts now?

Frogs are such interesting creatures. It was probably waiting to finish digesting the light before going after the next one…lol!

very cute! the red part looks like a strawberry…yummy!! lol

ThE frog is BRILLIANT

cool pic; it seems to have inspired some “lights out” commentary’

hahaha mr frog.

Maybe he thought it was a tasty lightning bug. It probably felt nice and warm on his insides.

This frog was commiting sucide, it must have heard we now have a n!gger in the white house!!

#104 post, your post sounds like a good idea for you.
You are the polution this planet don’t need!

This is a hoax I done seen it before

Hell and i go on about hating Christmas,i don’t think i hate it nearky half as much as this poor bugger, stick to the flies,”RIBBIT,RIBBIT!”

I bet he thought it was a firefly!

i smiled at the last line and imagined of possible frog’s frowning reaction and again i smiled at myself…. gone crazy

How and why he ate this light is a mystery
Possibilities:
- there was some insect on that bulb and the frog thought bulb part of it the frog liked the warmth and kept the stuff inside.
- was there a prospective partner froggy nearby? and it was part of attracting process…

Super-possibilities:
- the frog was showing his master(photographer) how would a frog shaped bulb would look better.
- frog is a scientist and its part of research of putting light inside the next generation of frogs.

Must of thought it was a lightning bug!

Its amazing thing ooooooohhhhhhh my god

I think the person that suggested laser lite is right. It wasn’t a red bulb so it shouldn’t be red. Good try though to dupe us!

Is it a real frog?

that is so coo!

This is a great picture…. but in Florida, the Cuban tree frogs will eat the native frogs, as well as out-breed them. They are an invasive species in the state and as such… should be “controlled”, if you catch my drift. Do your research…. Sorry to put a damper on the party…

This photo never gets old! Pic of the century.
