Bullfrogs invade France

Apparently the initial bullfrogs were released into
a French pond as a joke.

A campaign in France to exterminate frogs may sound like the beginning of=
a civil war, but these are no ordinary frogs.

Hunters working for the government's wildlife agency will be stalking
ponds in south-west France this weekend, aimed with flash-lights,
rifles, silencers and night-vision sights.

They have been mobilised for the most intensive effort so far to
terminate a plague of giant Californian bullfrogs which is threatening
to disrupt the ecology of the Gironde, Dordogne and several other
d=E9partements.
