Bullfrogs (Lithobates catesbeianus) as a Potential Source of Foodborne Disease
Journal of Food Protection, 2023 In Mexico, bullfrogs (Lithobates catesbeianus) are produced as gourmet food. However, bullfrogs can be carriers of pathogens because the frogs' preferred living conditions occur in stagnant water.
