Our Green Frog is Recovering!

Remember the Green Tree Frog with the major wound on its face? There's a posting about it in the January 2008 archive.

Well, we got an email from the frog expert in Brisbane who took it in to see what the "disease" was and what could be done with it. Pearl is amazing - she knows so much about frogs and is so caring. She figured out soon after we left Frog with her that it was most likely a severe wound, and not some rampant virus eating into its face.

Here's the latest news Pearl sent on 17th May:

I still have your frog she is doing well and still eating lots of crickets. She will probably be getting ready to “hibernate” for winter soon. Just a recent photo- as you can see the face is still crooked but has healed in the upper jaw and there is a large area on the lower that needs to heal over still. I will leave her alone til it gets warm again.

And here's the photo that Pearl sent - quite a change in just a few months.
