I love FROG!!!!!!

I can't speak,write,read English well,
but I know that they croak "ribbit! ribbit!" in English,
"kerokero!" in Japanese.

I want to know more English and more Croak.

In Japanese,
frogs & toads are generally called "KAERU",
sometimes toads are generally called "GAMA".

    "I love Emi Maru's photos. How is it that she does not have a pro account??? Must we take up a collection? She must be spending all her hard earned money on nice plants for her beloved herps. She so lovingly cares for them, obviously. You can see their expressions! And they are happy.

    But looking at the pictures does make me sad as well as happy. Like "A Moment Captured" says, these delicate creatures are absorbing our poisons. I think of them eating an ant that has eaten some Ortho Pest Control, and oh... poor thing... I imagine it would perish, or have deformed offspring or some horror. How can we save the frogs? How can we support Emi Maru? This is important. I don't want it to be a thing of the past.

    Thank you, Emi. I wish I spoke Japanese. :)"

    a moment captured says:

    "A publication quality photographer doing extremely important work.

    The humble frog is the barometer of society's pollution- Every year hundreds of species of frogs disappear from the face of the earth through our negligence.

    But thanks to Emimaru we will always have a photographic journal of what was, and what is left to save for our children.

    Much respect."
