On books..... i am pretty sure this frog above is bigger than any abf i have seen wild or captive bred id like to see a 15+abf and i know the G is bigger i found a pic for you all.
this G is bigger than some rat dogs they got out there lol
Lol. Yep that's the one. I looked into trying to get 1 but they are pretty rare even in the wild. Folks in the frogs native habitat tend to use them as a food source.

I wonder how you would vary their diet...
A frog like the Goliath should just be left out in the wild unless you have substantial space for it, the thing can leap somewhere from 6 to 10 feet it's always on the move for the next meal unlike pacs or abf that just sit there and wait for prey to walk by they remind me of American bullys on the move or soaking up the water siting under a tree waiting for bugs to fall off just WAY BIGGER
and b24 i am really not sure.
Goliaths are endanger'd and illegal to own. They don't appear in the pet trade. It would be impossible to house one as a frog of this size would need a house size enclosure. Like American Bullfrogs they are semi-aquatic, but only live in the Rainforests of Camerroon near rivers and streams. They are hunted for food just like the GABFs by locals.
They are rare even to find in the wild and even if seen catching one is a task near impossible since they can cover 10 feet in a single leap. Not much is known about their life cycles or breeding habits. Neither males nor females call and if they do produce sounds no one has ever heard it.
They are a beautiful frog and I would love to see one some day.
Great pic find Tim!
