For awhile I thought of possible solutions. I could forget about it and let it suffer slowly til it dies. I could throw in the water, but it would drown due to a lack of a front leg.  It seemed the most humane thing i could do was to grab a gun and shoot it in the head to kill it; which i did. As i watched to make sure it was dead i thought back several years to when i had just received my first BB gun. I would walk around the pond and pretend to stalk the frogs. When i would find one, i would proceed to aim at it and shoot it.  I also did the same with birds.   The thing is, when i did these things, i thought nothing of it.  Now i just killed a frog and it depresses the living hell out of me, the fact that i stole the life of another living thing. Am i psychotic or have i indeed grown a little inside?

It would of bled to death. Arnt some animals grown without bones? I thought frogs didnt have bones, just like snakes. I forgot the term for it though.. meine92 Posted at 8:25 pm on June 22, 2008 Quote: from Syber at 8:22 pm on June 22, 2008 YOu know it could of lived a perfectly normal life missing a leg....You could have even taken care of it...

I could never intentionally kill an animal, i'd try and make it as comfortable as possible and/or take it to a vet who can take care of it in a humane way.
