When I was young we had a bullfrog that lived in our pond outside. We would handfeed him garter snakes and worms, or at least my mom would. One day I decided to try and do it when she wasn't there. Unfortunately the frog not only took the worm out of my hand but clamped onto my hand as well! He held on for a couple seconds, which seems like forever when your a kid freaking out because you have a frog hanging off your hand (he was dangling over the pond at this point). He fell off and I didn't feed him for a while. He was wild caught and we simply let him go out there, never jumped away and let you touch him whenever you wanted to. Great frog, too bad we didn't know that bullfrogs are killing off native species in our area at the time.
