    That's too bad.. I'm sorry to hear that your frog died. I can say that you probably prolonged his life to be much longer than what it might have been in the wild and it sounds like you did your best to keep him comfortable as possible. The thought of froggy Valhalla is awesome.. just imagine, bearded viking frogs. I hope he finds his way there too.

    I wouldn't feel bad about it. If you got him from the wild, it's very likely he simply died from old age.

    I'm sorry for your loss. You gave him a much better chance then he ever would have gotten in the wild. Your feeling are of course natural as most people see them as an insignificant creature in this world people like use see something more and even a friend.

    Once again I am truly sorry. RIP Tyr.

    He would have been 2 years old this summer. When we picked him up he was tiny enough that we were sure it was his first year. If a frog had made it to adulthood in the wild with a gimped leg like Tyr had, I would have definitely left it alone.

    You gave him a wonderful life (like others stated, I do believe he wouldn't have made it nearly as long in the wild.) He was loved, absolutely nothing to feel bad about - it was his time. I too love the idea of Frog Valhalla, I bet he's there now rocking out and having a blast

    Sorry to hear it, man If he didn't survive under your care he wouldn't have survived with anyone, and certainly wouldn't have made it 2 years in the wild!
