I like exotics animals, so I am writing about one special frog. This frog is exotic because cientists belive that the species is cannibalistic.
The frog was found in northern Israel this year. Cientists said that the Frog was seen for the first time 50 years ago and never seen again, therefor it was declared extinct. The frog is native to the Hula Valley, a swamp drained in the 1950s to stop malaria.
Aquatic ecologist Dana Milstein says the frog was rare even before, and little is known about it. In the 1940s, a specimen ate a second frog, leading to speculation the species is cannibalistic.
She credited rehydration of the area for the frog sighting and said more are likely in the reserve.

I also like exotic animals. In 1980 I made a fishing in Mato Grosso and brought a young alligator to my house in Belo Horizonte. It lived there until 1983.It became very big and dangerous, so I donated to the zoo.
