AN AMAZING AUSTRALIAN FROG
e following is from CreationMoments.com, January 22, 2025: “A rare Australian aquatic frog has one of the
most amazing systems for rearing its young to be found in the animal kingdom. If any other creature tried the
same method, the result would be fatal to its young. e frog is a species of Australian frog so rare that it only has
a Latin name. Once the eggs are laid and fertilized, the female swallows the eggs. Sometimes she waits until they
begin to develop. However, once the young are in her stomach, she forgoes eating for eight weeks. Aer eight
weeks, the young, developed frogs emerge from her mouth. Why aren’t the young frogs digested in the mother’s
stomach? Once the offspring are in her stomach, they begin to release fine threads of chemicals from their
mouths. Among these chemicals is one that causes the mother’s stomach to stop manufacturing acid. In other
words, the tiny young frogs change the mother’s stomach from an organ for digestion into a comfortable,
protected nursery. Scientists were amazed at the frog’s system since no other creature in nature is able to do this.
e Bible oen notes that when Jesus Christ walked this Earth in bodily form, He frequently amazed people.
Sometimes He used a miracle to astonish them. Sometimes it was His teaching that astounded them. Here we see
that through His work as Creator, He can still amaze even the most hardened unbelievers. You can learn more
about why He is so amazing in the pages of the Bible. REF.: ‘Tadpole Role in Gastric Pregnancy,’ Science News,
