Police in Turkey have reportedly 'rescued' some 7,500 frogs from 5 men with a van and returned them to their wild habitat (https://www.theguardian.com/world/2017/oct/18/replenish-the-swamp-turkey-returns-7500-trafficked-frogs-to-the-wild). The frog's legs are delicacies in France and China, meaning that the illegal 'catch' had economic value. I am not sure how effective the return process was- pouring them into a single location is likely to attract lots of predators.
