Bullfrogs Show Jumpy Habits and Homing Tendencies
Dr George Bennett of the Illinois Natural History Survey told the University of Illinois Sportsmen's Club that bullfrogs are jumpy and exhibit erratic habits. Experiments at Ridge Lake Charleston involved clipping toes and releasing frogs to test homing, with many returning to the lake while others left and vanished. The study notes a constant travel among some individuals and a population that tends to remain steady, with ongoing research into factors affecting the bullfrog population and possible interventions.
