    I do think that frogs can get depressed after losing a mate. My Obdulia stopped eating after her mate passed in February. She wasn't sick, but she refused to eat. I had to force feed her for months. I eventually placed her with other spadefoots and she began to perk up. Now she eats on her own.

    We might think that frogs are incapable of these kinds of feelings, but I know what I saw. She lived with her mate for years and it was hard for her to be alone. I know part of what saved her were her new cage mates. She's always hanging out with them.
