Enjoy!
This is absolutely remarkable. Wow!
Nissim u'nifla'ot.
Thank you for sharing this with us - I wouldn't have believed it if I hadn't seen it.
Wow, i'm also amazed...baruch haShem. We've witnessed a miracle.

And then we see that frogs evolved it all on their own.
Yeshivish Atheist, how?
Amazing. Thanks for sharing. Ma rabbu maasecha HaShem.
