Can frogs eat?

Frogs can be eaten, but eating wild frogs is not recommended.

Frogs, also called frogs, can be eaten by themselves, but it is not recommended to eat wild frogs, because wild frogs belong to national second-class protected animals and can eat farmed frogs. Frog is a protected animal prohibited by the state, but in daily life, many people regard frog meat as nourishing or delicious food, which leads some vendors to kill frogs on a large scale. Catching frogs will inevitably destroy the ecological balance and lead to the proliferation of pests. Farmed frogs are edible and their meat tastes delicious.

Edible frogs, also called mud frogs and green chickens, are popular in China because of frogs all over the world. In most cases, people will eat frogs as food, because some dishes made by frogs are extremely delicious and have high nutritional value. In some areas, frogs will be kept as pets because they look beautiful and have certain ornamental value.
