bullfrog
Deep-voiced amphibian
A bullfrog is a large frog, especially the North American species known for its deep, resonant call that sounds like a bull's bellow.
Bullfrogs are the largest frogs in North America, found near ponds and lakes, and are sometimes eaten: We caught bullfrogs and fried up the legs.
