  • @kieranpearson My apologies for putting words in your "mouth".

    I agree with you.. I was/am looking for some evidence of it's economy being affected and bumped into your video (thanks for sharing it BTW).

  • @CrazyTacky the economy could be affected by loss of tourism but I didn't mention the economic but rather the ECOLOGICAL impact. Check out the animals i mention above and what they are doing to those environments. Thanks for the comment.

  • @kieranpearson I know this is a two year old comment but... where's the data supporting your claim? I've looked around (maybe not hard enough) but all I could find is that they are a nuisance due to "noise pollution" and speculation that the frog will impact Hawaii economy one way or another (again speculation not facts).

    I'm just wondering if you have a solid source with factual data that I can take a look at.

    Thanks.

  • ill tell you you why puertoricans thought coquis werent able to survive anywhere else than P.R. its because when they brought them back they put them in cigar boxes and shoe boxes and tried to feed them dead flies.the proper enclosure,humidity, heat and food and not only would they thrive,but also breed.

  • why why did u steal our little frogs ship them back they dont like not being at home on the island that is wrong wrong wrong....
