Giant Bullfrog
The Giant Namibian Bullfrog or giant Pyxie is quite the delicacy in Namibia, often consumed as a celebratory dish, particularly by the Ovambo people.
The main problem with these bullfrogs lies in a toxin called Oshiketakata found in young specimens.
Apparently, they are safe to eat after the ‘third rain’ or when there is excessive croaking and breeding happening.
The toxin causes painful urination, kidney failure, and even death.
