The Giant Bullfrog was on the 2004 IUCN Red List of Threatened Species but labeled as least concerned, which is different than the endangered species list. The population is decreasing. iucnredlist.org/apps/redlist/details/585... The Giant Bullfrog was well researched in 2004 for threat.
Maybe causing confusion for the species being on the endangered list. -quote- With the IUCN (World Conservation Union) having listed the Giant Bullfrog (Pyxicephalus adspersus) as “Near-Threatened� In southern Africa, there is a need to conduct research on this species (as a first step towards their conservation), which has resulted in the inception of a PhD research project at the University of Pretoria (UP) in January 2003.
During the course of 2004 the research project transpired into the official “Giant Bullfrog Project� (GBP) of the Endangered Wildlife Trust (EWT). --end quote-- https://www.ewt.org.za/workgroups_giantbullfrog.aspx However, it is not on the endangered list.
The hunting of this frog in Africa for consumption hasn't effected the population to that degree. -quote- Pyxicephalus adspersus is not listed among the worlds endangered species. Even though many indigenous peoples consider them to be a delicacy, their hunting has not had a significant effect on the size of the population.

The African Bullfrog is not on the Endangered Species List. It is unlikely to ever be put on it. However, it does require some wild habitat and can been driven to extinction in overly developed areas.It is more of a danger to become an invasive species; but, that doesn't seem to be happening either.
"No special legal status has been given to Pyxicephalus species. Switak (1997) notes that advancing civilization has driven it near extinction in certain parts of its range." One such part is South Africa. It is threatened there and extinct in some areas: "Giant Bullfrogs originally occurred in great densities across South Africa, but extensive loss of habitat with concomitant decline in their numbers have resulted in their being listed by the World Conservation Union as ‘Near-Threatened’ in southern Africa. It is feared that extinction of the species is eminent in the Free State, and has already occurred in Swaziland.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
