    I'm not so sure about it being giant, we need better pics, it might be tanzanian one, in a first pic it looks like giant, but in the rest of the pics it does not.
    at any rate these 2 species will grow big.
    Save one animal and it doesn't change the world, but it surely changes the world for that one animal!

    Agree with Lija in that the Tanzania morph (not a described species yet) does grow large with males reaching 7 in. According to Vosjoli P. and Mailloux R. (2012) Giant African Bullfrogs Life History and Captive Husbandry. Advanced Visions, Inc., CA USA.; Tanzania ABFs froglets have a zig-zag patterned dorsal line while the pics provided show a straight line.

    If not a Giant, maybe it's a P. angusticeps from Mozambique (http://www.frogforum.net/african-bul...us-status.html).
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
