For example, the English name of the European tree frog Rana esculenta means edible frog, and the South Asian tiger frog Rana tigrina is called water frog (tui-koi) because of the taste of its thigh meat. In the Amazon River basin, even the tadpoles of the upside-down frog Pseudis paradoxa , which can reach a total length of 25 cm, are sold in the market.
