I was in the garden, watering plants and things, and I saw a green/brown frog sitting on the floor. I moved closer but it didn't appear to be breathing or blinking or anything really. However, it had its head held high and it looked just like your average, alive frog.

On closer inspection, I could see that just behind it was a reddish, pink mess which coveredone of its legs and its backside. I then realised it was certainly dead. It was fully inflated though and looked perfectly well before you looked behind it. The only dead frogs I've seen before have been squashed on the road, or completely torn apart by my cat.

I can't understand what happened to it. Either my cat has become a master frog surgeon and has learnt how to rip out a frogs insides whilst leaving the body perfectly in tact or the frog has crapped out all of its internal organs.

No bushes, look at the picture, it's on the path. the garden is 'L' shaped, and there no need to go round the corner because the only thing that's there is the shed (which nobody has been into recently) and now a dead frog.

Unless someone went into the shed, how would you know if they had ? Have you led an inquisition ?

Yes.

And as for the dent in the frogs back, I think that's a camera trick or something because you can't see it on the actual creature.

The dent is just the natural shape of the frogs' body, well, the curve is.

The dent at the back is just where the organs are coming out, but if there isn't one, it can't have been crushed

So, I'm guessing it is a disease

Go flip it upside down and see if there's a hole/ any scratch marks or something.

That is if you really want to know what killed it.

Anyway, anyone else got any interesting dead animals to show us? Perhaps some roadkill? :-)

There's a dead pigeon in my garden at the moment. I nearly ran over it on the lawnmower, that wouldn't've been pretty :-/

Im not entirely sure, but i would theorise that it was suffering some kind of disease or virus which degraded the tissues, its the only plausible explanation i could immeadiately see for what happened. Unless it got stood on, the pressure force some stuff out and then the pressure re-equalised inside the chest cavity after the release.

Its a queer situation.

But you might have created carnivorous earthworms. Just imagine next time a bird landed on your lawn after the rain... boy would he be in for a surprise.

It's gone now, into the bin. If there was a scratch then the only thing that could have done it would have been the cat but if the cat could make a scratch at the perfect sive to do that and flip the frog backover all without crushing it, then my cat is a genius.

It had a disease, it's fairly obvious as all the other possibilities have been explored and overuled
