The Network has published a video where you can see features a very strange animal.

According to an employee of the University of Massachusetts Jill Fleming, the frog was the victim of some predator. This could make the snake or the American mink in the moment when a turtle was hibernating. Most likely, the frog was saved by the fact that she was not conscious.

There is another version, according to which harm to an animal could lampshade. This green fly is a parasite that lays its eggs on amphibians, and amphibians. Hatched offspring feeds off the surrounding tissue. It is worth noting that the brain of amphibians remained intact and continued to function.
