Hi, Frank Indiviglio here. Iām a herpetologist, zoologist, and book author, recently retired from a career spent at several zoos, aquariums, and museums, including over20 years with the Bronx Zoo[FONT="] [/FONT]
[FONT="]The Argentine, Pac Man or Ornate Horned Frog (Ceratophrys ornata) may be the worldās most popular amphibian pet. Beautiful and ācharminglyā pugnacious, Horned Frogs require relatively little space despite their āsalad bowlā size, and may live to age 20 or more. In a close second among frog fans is the massive African Bullfrog, Pyxicephalus adspersus. These brutes, which can live past age 50, are resilient beyond belief ā one was observed downing 17 hatchling spitting cobras, and during droughts they can remain dormant for 10 to 12 months![/FONT]
[FONT="]In the following article Iāll compare Horned and African Bullfrogs in terms of their habits, activity levels, and care needs, so that youāll be able to choose the species that best suits your interests and frog-keeping skills. Detailed care information is provided in the articles linked under āFurther Readingā; as always, please also post any questions or observations you may have.
