<h5>To the Editor:</h5> One of the greatest cartoons that Warner Brothers ever produced was “One Froggy Evening,” a Chuck Jones masterpiece of 1955. It has had such an impact that even today the frog from that cartoon is still the logo of the Warner Brothers TV Channel. Although “One Froggy Evening” has always been good press for frogs (Fig. 1 ), the frogs themselves are not faring so well in the wild (Fig. 2 ). I have addressed the decline in frog populations and the increase in frog malformations with a comparison of frog and human health in a recent article and accompanying editorial [Cohen, 2001a , b ]. This is a particularly important topic because frogs act as heralds for perturbations in the environment. 1 “Singing” peeper ( Pseudacris crucifer ). Courtesy of J.B. Grant, Ithaca, New York.
