Literally, think we would want something offering both cut and puncture resistance.

    There are specific gloves made for animal handling and if you Google "bite resistant gloves" will get to places like: Laboratory Safety Gloves - Kent Scientific Corporation with info and offerings.

    I have no knowledge of how an African Bullfrog would react to biting a gloved hand. Tend to think the synthetic material would be released within a few seconds. Stilgar once jumped and bite a fake plant in his tank during feeding and released it moments after. Did chomp off half a leaf of it, he, he, he. Good luck and hope this info helps you.

    Carlos those gloves from :: Laboratory Safety Gloves - Kent Scientific Corporation are soooo baddd ***! reasonable @ 80 bucks for that type of bite resistance too! oh man I'm calling them tommorow.

    Glad I could be of help Mikey! I'm looking at getting better gloves too! My cichlid fish love me and the T's are OK; but Stilgar has this prankster like behavior I do not trust.
    Remember to take care of the enclosure and it will take care of your frog !​
