Several years ago one of these weird fashions emerged in the United States: frogskin shoes and bags! It is clear that Brazil, a country that is home to several of these species of these animals, soon began killing frogs and exporting their skins. In some places, especially in the Northeast, the frog has become a rarity, such is the intensity of its extermination. The result, in the form of ecological imbalance, does not wait. Several regions began to be invaded by millions and millions of beetles or moths. This not only terribly annoyed its inhabitants (because these insects got into houses or accumulated around poles. lighting), but also caused enormous damage to the plantations, as the larvae of the beetles are tree borers, and the caterpillars of the moths they devour leaves. Because of this, the ban on the killing and export of frogs in Brazil was decreed.
