Hi! This frog showed up at my pond yesterday. Is it invasive?

Clackamas County Oregon

Expert Response

That is a bullfrog, which is an invasive exotic. They can be easy to catch at night. Use a bright light and a net. Be careful to keep the net out of the light until you make your swing.

Good luck,
