Wikipedia's entry on the bullfrog says he can grow to 6" in length and 1 1/2 lbs. Seems like you could make a pair of shoes out of 4 frogs. Who wants to go giggin'?

You'd be very surprised how small a piece of leather is needed for shoos/boots. l had a pair of croc boots made from what seemed to be a really small piece of leather.

I think you could use any big toad or frog and call it "bull frog". As suggested, the cane toads are the size of a dinner plate but don't sound quite so nice for footwear.

Cain Toads are everywhere in Northern Australia, a real pest. Maybe l should get some shoos made out of cain toad leather for an experiment.
