Our piqued interest on the bullfrog still doesn’t end so here’s a great short documentary from National Geographic on this ranid creature. This should clear up our opinions on frogs that they mainly live on flies.

From rodents, snakes, fish, scorpions and spiders, these eating machines basically eat anything that passes in front of them. They do not have big claws, sharp feet or fangs and yet overcome pincers, poisons and spicy stingers.

Known to swim 20 feet to shore to grab a meal and hop back into the pond to drown them, they strike their prey with swiftness and stealth. They are also canibalistic and eat smaller size of their own species.

Spectacular captures of the American Bullfrog preying on an unlucky sparrow. Growing up to a length of 20 centimeters or 7.9 inches, the bullfrog preys on any animal that it can overpower and stuff down its throat. Their stomachs have been found to contain rodents, small turtles, snakes, frogs including bullfrogs and birds of course.

Ambush predators as they are known for, the bullfrog can be seen submerging large preys (in this case the sparrow) into the water to cut their air supply and defense.

Undercover investigation by PETA at an Iowa pig factory farm reveals shocking rampant animal cruelty committed by the workers and supervisors. The video and images are horrific to the extent that some of the images shown here have been left out.

Some of the atrocities of cruelty shown were

- Piglets slammed to the floor and leaving them still wriggling to die in a bloodied pile
- beating up of the pigs to death with metal rods
- inserting rods into the sow’s vagina
- Spraying paint into the pig’s eyes and nostrils

These condemed acts and unacceptable practice shows how ugly human actions can be and the atrocities that are not known to us when we eat products such as bacon, ham or sausage.

Watch the video and gallery at your discretion and definitely not for the squeamish hearted. The images shown here are less disturbing and to see the full story and media, check out PETA’s website. If you care about animal cruelty, do check out Kentucky Fried Cruelty as well.

The Dragonball Movie slated for a release date of April 3, 2009 is an American live action film adaptation of the Dragon Ball media franchise. These new screenshots shows the various characters such as Justin Chatwin as Goku, Jamie Chung as Chi Chi, Emmy Rossum as Bulma, Chow Yun Fat as Master Roshi and Eriko Tamura as Mai.

I’m a bit skeptical how this movie would turn out since Dragonball is an over-the-top stylized animated series but with Stephen Chow as a producer, it does seems that the movie could turn out good.
