I once stayed at a B&B in Scotland that had 3 of these beasts. On the booking form it said “must like dogs”. What it didnt tell you was “you will open the door to your room in the morning and the dog will be looking eye to eye with you”

little used fantasy trope i love: when two people are playing cards in a shady bar and it's the tense moment where they show their hand but it's a fantasy so they can't say things like "full house" or "royal flush" so they same some nonsense like "three crowns and a dead crow" and the crowd is like "oooOOHH" so we know that's good

Other character smirks: "Well, I've got a castle on four omens."

The crowd "oohs" louder, so we know that it's Much Better™️

Who else really wants to know why that turned into a fight

doomedgirls

pretty sure they’re both males trying to sing to attract a lady frog. they got mad bc they’re right on top of each other and fight to get one to leave the territory

Ahhhh that makes sense. Thanks!

But why did it take that long to notice each other then? They seemed to be chill with each other at first?

Hey I'm writing my thesis on Behavioural Ecology and have an answer for you! Tbh I work w bugs but I'm a big fan of amphibians so I dabble ;)

Before fighting, these frogs tried to resolve their differences peacefully with shouting. Usually, you can tell from the sound of the call which frog is bigger (and thus presumably stronger). Bigger frogs generally have deeper, louder calls, and if the other frog is significantly smaller, they'll often just give up and leave without a fight on the basis of a rival's call alone. It's kind of hilarious, actually: if you take 2 fairly even frogs, and modulate one of their calls to make them sound bigger, the other one will often just dip. Like "no, that guy sounds like he could kick my ass, I'm not touching that!"

So the first bit, they're calling close to each other, simultaneously to attract a female and to size each other up, but after a while they realise that they're pretty evenly matched. If a lady shows up, she might pick either one! Can't have that. Plus, maybe this is a great spot! The acoustics are EXCELLENT, and the call reflecting off this concrete wall makes me sound even BIGGER and STRONGER, but this other dude is RUINING it. Only solution is to declare this territory as my own and kick out the other guy!

Basically, there comes a point where yelling isn't enough and the frogs need to fight it out to determine who's the strongest. Even then, it tends to be a strength test more than a trying-to-hurt-you fight (think arm wrestle vs fist fight in humans). The stronger one pushes the weaker one, the weaker one realises he's outmatched, and he leaves with no one sporting any significant injuries other than on their frog-pride (which may or may not exist, idk if frogs feel thinks like "pride" or "envy." P sure they experience "avarice" tho).

You see similar things in lots of animal species. It's called "Ritualised Aggression" if you want to google it more! Honestly there are some EXCELLENT examples out there.

Hey, wow, that’s super cool! Thanks for answering my question! 💜

I can’t stop thinking about this message, so I spent a while trying to isolate just the writing and make it transparent. I might order a shirt with it
