I suppose I dont really see the big deal with this.
This day and age are there not frogs down in the amazon that are nearly just as large? They eat small creatures, they're more like toads than frogs.

Its africa,
Conraua goliath frog.
Quote:
The goliath frog, an African frog of genus Conraua, can grow up to 13 inches (33 cm) in length from head to vent, and weighs up to 7 lb (3 kg). It is the largest frog on earth and is renowned for its incredible leaping ability, leaping up to 20 feet in one bound[citation needed]. However, it is usually exhausted after two or three of these leaps. This animal has a relatively small habitat range, mainly in West Africa. Its numbers are dwindling due to habitat destruction and collection for the pet trade.
