So maybe this isn't your exact field since I see you curate dead things and not alive things. Regardless do you know of any common frog pets that you wouldn't condone for pets that people might not know about? For example. You can buy an iguana but an iguanas habitat size and environmental needs often lead to them being in, intentional or not, abusive households for them. I know lots of birds, snakes, and lizards that are like this but I haven't heard much about frogs. Are there any you can buy but probably shouldn't for some or several reasons? Is it ok to keep poisonous tropical rainforest frogs for example? I see some as pets and it seems iffy to me.

This may be an unpopular opinion, but basically I am of the opinion that most people who keep frogs as pets should not be doing so. They require specific environmental conditions that are not always easy to maintain without relatively major investment of both money and time. They also need almost constant access to food (especially dendrobatids), but that diet also needs to be balanced. It is common to see Ranoidea caerulea (White's tree frogs) that are extremely overweight, which is reflective of poor diets. No frogs should be regularly held, but many people take theirs own on a regular basis.

All-told, there are no frogs I know of that I would consider appropriate for beginner animal keepers. Reptiles are often much more forgiving in this regard. But it is also important to remember that no animals should be testers or trainingwheels, especially ones that are as long-lived as some of these. They are a huge commitment. I think that gets forgotten a lot of the time. Tbh, I myself have been guilty of that in the past. But we should work to do the best we can for the animals in our care. And to know our own limitations and abilities, and not acquire animals we cannot care for appropriately.

Top 5 frogs, go.

Oh I am so glad you asked this

1) has to go to the Green Tree Frog (Ranoidea caerulea), absolute classic frog, textbook. Just a little green guy who eats bugs. Love them.

2) the Perons Tree Frog (Litoria peronii) is a wonderful little guy. They have thunder thighs (bright marbled patterning on the inside of their legs that flashes when they jump to make predators think they're poisonous) and are also called the emerald-speckled tree frog, laughing tree frog, and maniacal cackle frog for obvious reasons.

3) goes to the Pobblebonk!! (Limnodynastes dumerilii) I love these little guys!! They go bonk bonk bonk like a banjo, wonderful

4) the Whooping Frog (Heleioporus inornatus) is native to Western Australia and sounds like a little video game character doing a jump, ain't that neat?

5) the Sunset Frog (Spicospina flammocaerulea) is a rare little guy who looks like a molten rock, but they're endangered :( hope they recover soon

Thanks again :)

Australian green tree frog (Ranoidea caerulea), this big girl? (girls are usually bigger) was on our back veranda last night. Known as green tree frog in Australia also White's tree frog, or dumpy tree frog and native to Australia and New Guinea. Their call is a ‘wark-wark-wark’, that is only made by the males. In dry areas they often use human habitation for shelter and are known for their habit of hiding under the rim of outback toilet bowls! After being picked put and on a piece of glass, so I could photograph underneath, she happily hopped off the glass and sat on top of the bucket for the rest of the nigh waiting for bugs. #GreenTreeFrog #AustralianGreenTreeFrog #RanoideaCaerulea #amphibian #abcmygarden #frog #green #AustralianNative https://www.reptilepark.com.au/green-tree-frog/ (at Belmont, New South Wales, Australia) https://www.instagram.com/p/CorHDRAPOhq/?igshid=NGJjMDIxMWI=

The personality differences between Scarlet and Dunpling are incredible. Dumpling gorges himself on every insect I give him, readily grabbing it directly from my fingers and scarfing it down. Oftentimes just putting my fingers near him initiates a feeding response (which, while amusing, is not exactly helpful when trying to clean).

Scarlet on the other hand is still very timid about the Food Delivered Via Fingers, and when I dust the feeder with vitamins she will quite literally gag and reject it. She'll currently only accept mealworms; after missing a dubia once she's decided they are Not For Her.

These Australian green tree frogs [also known as White’s tree frogs or dumpy frogs; Ranoidea caerulea] were spotted having a soak in a rain gutter in Coominya, Australia. These frogs are incredibly common throughout northern and eastern Australia, as well as in parts of New Guinea. Images by Rob Max.
