Foxes, ravens... The principal golf course in Zimbabwe borders a nice
tract of wetland, and in the Spring, I'm told by a former resident, male
Pyxicephalus bullfrogs (5-7 lbs for fully adult specimens) guard their
territory, will charge golfers on the green closest to the marsh, and
routinely gobble up any balls that roll their way - so routinely, in fact,
that one of the accepted hazards printed on this club's score-card is
"Frog Ate Ball."
