The centipede dragged the lizard toward the beach, presuround to eat the lizard On the beach, it couldn't get in the sand with the lizard
It twisted its colorful body and soon crawled to the nearest rock
Just then, in a puddle behind the reef, a big frog popped up The frog was as big as a child's bicycle tire
After it juue towards the large centipede The centipede and lizard were rolled up into itsreturned to its puddle and hid Only the frog's rough brown back was showing as it pretended to be a rock
Right then, Li Du felt like he wanted to say, ”Moo home!”
He called Brother Wolf and the others, pointed to the puddle, and cried, ”Look, there is a frog over there D spirit!”
Hans said, ”Cals? Did you see a poison frog?”
Li Du picked up a rock and threw it into the water
The group watched, and when the frog ju could bounce three or four meters at a ti is this? Is this a bullfrog? No, no, it's an elephant frog, isn't it?”
Brother Wolf shook his head ”It's a giant African frog I didn't expect to find this species living on this island”
Li Du asked, ”How did the African frog get here from halfway around the world?”
”As far as I know, in the 1980s, Australia was ie quantities in order to get theh jump,” Brother Wolf explained
”It does jump very well,” Hans interrupted
Brother Wolf said, ”Yes, this frog is very good at ju and can jump more than five ton Treaty that prohibits international trade in endangered species It is rarely seen”
With snakes and centipedes and African giant frogs, Li Du hesitated He reht They said the island was dangerous, and it was better to stay away
However, they had stayed too long on the boat They had to move around, and they needed fresh water and fruit The scenery here was beautiful, and it was a suitable place to rest
After some consideration, Li Du let Brother Wolf drive a speedboat to pick the Quinn's wife, Rosalind, to take care of the children, and had the rest of them to iant frogs fed on insects, scorpions, crustaceans, and other frogs, and Brother Wolf said they did not attack larger creatures
However, Li Du watched the giant frog munch on the centipede and feared it would be poisonous, so he asked everyone to be careful about it
Behind the camp there were patches of black raisins, so Sophie and others went to pick some Brother Wolf and Hans climbed baobab trees to pick the fruit and the leaves
The baobab tree's trunk had a lot of space inside The as the best for water storage During the rainy season, it used its thick body and soft wood to replace the root systee quantities Its xylee that contained a lot of water When the dry season came, it quickly stripped off all the leaves on its body to reduce the evaporation of water
