Namibia is endowed with an extraordinary assemblage of wildlife, magnificently adapted to survive and flourish under the country's harsh arid and semi-arid climatic regimes, including a remarkable diversity of amphibian species. Among these are notable frog species such as the Giant African Bullfrog, the Common Platanna, and the Mapacha Grass Frog, among others. The Giant African Bullfrog (Pyxicephalus adspersus), in particular, is predominantly distributed across the central and northern regions of Namibia and has been subjected to intense exploitation for human consumption.
