Frogs are probably the most insane predators, Goliath Frogs literally eat anything in sight that's big enough to fit in it's mouth, and they're about 36cm/12" in size which is just mental
This video blew my mind! Beelzebufo, the devil frog, emerges as a true heavyweight of the Cretaceous period. Its unique adaptations, including bone armor and a ferocious bite, make it a standout among ancient amphibians. The discussion on its potential role in the ecosystem, as both predator and prey, offers valuable insights into the dynamics of prehistoric life. A definite highlight for anyone with an interest in paleontology or natural history!
"2200 N" That is... Kind of nuts. If true, that would imply it probably could bite harder than a decent-sized polar bear, and has a bite force quotient somewhere in the high 1600s.
In theory, it could pull 2200 kg down the distance of its open mouth, if it were hanging above in a way that that's possible. Obviously, it couldn't pull or lift that much otherwise. But that's insane.
It's hard to believe but a 2.2k bite force makes sense when you really break down their anatomy. Their mouth is a huge opening right to their stomach, and since it didn't kill by bleeding things out or shock, it basically needed to make sure whatever it ate stayed inside. Those jaw muscles were probably under constant strain from it's meal struggling around for a couple minutes. Fucking wild!
I had a weird dream once, long before I’d even known these frogs existed. They were were green, the color of grass, camouflaging seamlessly in the scenery. They hunted in large packs of 6-10 and were the size of large cats. Their tongues were very powerful and extremely sticky and once it attached to something, it had the force to yank off one’s arm as it pulled it back. They would then collectively tear off chunks of their prey with their tongues and digest them alive. The dream was so unsettling and frightening, I hopped on Google to see if such a thing ever existed, and as it turns out, the damn thing did. I’ve had so many different weird dreams about prehistoric insects, sea life and animals, it’s crazy. Always makes me wonder if there’s some validity to them, just as I’d dreamt of these demons.
A frog will ear anything that moves and will fit in it's mouth. Naturally this eliminates anything that is larger than the frog and they can't chew and won't wear carrion.
Why did the Beelzebufo refuse to update its software? Because every time it tried, it got a "bug" in the system and ended up feeling toad-ally frustrated! 😁
The beelzebufo could also eat small dinosaurs and animals like newborns adult oviraptors, chompocognathus, a baby dimetrodon, an baby zebra shark, could eat more frogs insects, birds, raptors, newborn ankylosaurus, and other more
The land bridge to South America via Antarctica seems a lot less plausible than the possibility that Beelzebufo is a holdover from the Triassic Pangea, with Beelzebufo just facing a rapid extraction in mainland Africa after the breakup.
I was wondering about convergent evolution. The lesser tenrec looks almost exactly like a hedgehog, but is not closely related. It too is a native of Madagascar. Perhaps a similar process happened to these frogs.
I know modern frogs can scream like an ambulance, I can imagine this thin being capable of giving you tinnitus when it screamed. Perfect for telling a big dinosaur to f*ck off.

@@Da_bear-ij9gmBecause soft tissue connects to bone, and bones are shaped to work well with soft tissue. In some cases we can know a lot about soft tissues based on bone structure.
Frog and fish eggs were often carried by birds in the modern times, I would suggest similar frogs could arrive at Madagascar via hitch hikes from pterosaurs.
Due to the shape of a frog’s skull which has very little in the way of muscle connections for masseter, temporal and such: I can pretty confidently say 2200 newtons is either a typo or a misread. It doesn’t matter how big the frog’s mouth was, frog skulls aren’t designed for crushing bite force. For a predator like a leopard which does have a skull specially designed for biting to have only half the bite of a frog is unrealistic and dubious. The frog would have to be about 50% larger than a leopard due to the physics working against it. Since it is the size of a chihuahua I’m going to call BS.
not surprised beazabufo is such a interesting and powerful beast Madagascar has always been a incredible biodiverse place about ten million years ago there were giant gorrila sized lemurs! 😮
I had no idea there were Araripesuchus in Madagascar. How did they get there? Gondwana had started to break apart long before that. Can't wiat for more answers for that
@@danilodesouza6461 Yeah, it sounds silly. I guess we have to start with when did they appear in the geologic record and calculate how far apart the land masses are. It could be that the frogs were in Madagascar before the tectonic plates moved. Another possibility is birds eating the eggs, flying to the area and disgorging (throw up) the crop contents while feeding their chicks. Do you have any ideas to add?
@2degucitas araripesuchus was no frog, mate. It was a 40kg land croc from late cretaceous South America. I like your thoughts on migratory flying animals regurgitating eggs (or even bones) far away from their native range, though
After just reading the title, I pictured a frog with a tiny voice threatening humans. "Fear me! I will crush you human; like my ancestors did! We were giants!"
With that kind of bite force and poor mobility, I feel it would have made sense for it to have been a scavenger, as well as an ambush predator, sort of like an aquatic wolverine
I've seen cane toads in Australia bigger than basketballs. People really need to sus that out before naming this little thing "the biggest frog", it's not even close
I feel Like there needs to be a game of thrones family that rides giant frogs like targarions ride dragons, and has giant frogs as the family sigil. Because wars between the families would be way cooler with giant frogs. 😂

Take in mind some storms may carry frogs and fish thousands of miles of their basic residence and some of them may survive it while reaching the destination... it could be the case here as well, even if the continents weren't connected.
