Wild frog ID

Really, they aren't native? I didn't know that. Could I keep it as a pet? How much room would it need? I could make it a cool habitat if I could get away with a 2x3 ish foot area. My friend is already getting squeamish about it, she's not a frog person, but was hoping it would keep her bugs down in her garden.

My friend is gonna keep him until the pond thaws. The pond here is a man made pond in the middle of a desert (half of washington state is a desert), so I don't think he'll make it to the coast to eat frogs there.

His name is Frenchy

That's a good looking bullfrog, but like Tony said it likely shouldn't be released regardless of location as they are invasive and you never know how far it could make it even released in a man made pond. If your friend doesn't want it ther are several options with rehoming it that would keep it out of the natural ecosystem.
