Neat!  That would be awesome to have an itty bitty frog that can jump 30 times it's own body length.

This would make a great pet if you have a small apartment.

But then what if it gets lost somewhere? Would you be able to find it? What if your cat/dog/bird decides to eat it?

(I'm assuming if you take it out of it's aquarium or whatever.)

Eeeh! I'd be afraid to mess with it, though-- looks like it'd be alarmingly easy to smush.

That is why you cup your hand not smush your fingers.

The first thing this makes me wonder is what would happen if someone tried to make an army of tiny frogs.  :P

Word of caution: Be sure to investigate before you order frogs' legs.
