Frogs

When I was a kid I loved frogs, particularly big green tree frogs. I used to catch them and carry them around with me. I was also a big thumbsucker, and I used to have one thumb in my mouth, and have a frog in the other hand, and sometimes swapped hands... At the time I didn't see a problem with this, though other people did. As it turns out, my lack of hygienic concern actually has well thought out reasoning behind it; for to quote Wikipedia,

'The skin secretions of the frog have antibacterial and antiviral properties that may prove useful in pharmaceutical preparations.'

Who knew? Me.
