The 'voracious' appetites of some Europeans are reportedly bringing some species of wild frog to the brink of extinction (https://www.theguardian.com/environment/2022/jun/23/big-appetite-for-frogs-legs-among-french-and-belgians-driving-species-to-extinction). Frogs (and other amphibians) are already subject to worldwide threat, by fungal infections and habitat loss. France and Belgium, where frog's legs are a delicacy, annually import circa 200 million, wild frogs from Albania, Indonesia and Turkey. Perhaps food chemists can come up with plant or fungal-based alternatives for frog's legs? Otherwise, Albanian, Indonesian and Turkish frogs may permanently leave the gene pool.
