Description:
Storgs are a stone-like frog shaped species found typically along rocky caves and outcrops. They gather in dark habitats, specifically moist caves and crevices to avoid drying out their skin completely from direct sunlight. Sun sensitivity and limited food options can typically keep a population of Storgs in check. However this species is considered highly invasive if introduced in just the right climate and habitat.
Their stony tough skin makes them difficult to deal with, and are highly toxic as their organs are filled with acidic chemicals that can cause them to erupt under blunt trauma or high stress. They also have other defense mechanisms including projectile vomiting foreign objects to their attackers.
This acidic saliva can be highly useful for storgs, aiding in immediate digestion. Storgs are often considered the “Garbage Disposal Frog” for their ability to eat just about anything without any adverse effects. With such an appetite, invasive species of storg can normally be found raiding dumps and cities for trash consumption.
Despite their positive ability to clean up man’s trash, they are aggressive breeders if the environment has enough food involved, this has caused storgs to be a very large problem in some places, where they are deemed as pests and are required to be rounded up & controlled during particular breeding seasons.
