Join Ilana to learn about the green frog (Lithobates clamitans) from Sage. Ilana will find out that the green frog is very frog, but not very green, and they're always ready for a fight. Sage answers the important questions like: are we turning the friggin' frogs gay, or have they been that way all along? Let's see what the research says.
