Supposedly people know what they think they think regarding
issues they make claims about. Even when the claims seem
completely absurd, people supposedly have some idea why
they believe them IF they actually do. The apparent absurdity
of some of the things you've written lately immediately produce
questions regarding how they could possibly be true, or how
you could possibly think they are whether they are or not.
If there's any real thought behind what so far appears to
be simply thoughtless desperation from a crazed "ara", try
answering these questions you've forced me to wonder about
and share the thought process(es) which caused you to arrive
at what appears to be mere confusion and bewilderment.

How would they know what was happening? How would they
know where the water went? How far would they have to travel
in order to get to it? What would keep them from getting killed
by predators IF they hopped along trying to get there? What
would keep them from dehydrating even IF they did know where
to go, tried to get there, and didn't get killed by predators?

I'll just ask you what you asked me: where do they come from?
IF you think they don't get killed when the fields dry, but still think
they "easily move on as the fields dry", they're still GONE. So again,
where do you think they come from?

Who would document it? Why?

When a water hole or creek starts drying up frogs will either move or
dig themselves down into the mud and await the next freshet of water.

So where are all 'these' frogs coming from, dh?

Amphibian watchers, .. agricultural sites, .. ecological sites..

I challenge you to find a reference to this alleged mass slaughter.
