Update:
I have witnessed it eagerly eat 2 large cockroaches and 10 or so live carpenter ants and several Cuban Anole lizards. A friend is going to give me a couple small Cuban Tree frogs and we are going to see if this large one will eat its own species. I'm not going to feed it a native tree frog, we already know from disected frogs that native tree frogs were found in their stomachs.
Update:
I took this Cuban Tree Frog to a Florida Native Plant Societ meeting. When the president of the club held up the container it was in everyone went "BOOOOOO! Cuban Tree Frog BOOOOOO!" Several people had never seen one up close, but everyone know what it was by name.
Update
I took this Frog to the Central Florida Herpetological meeting and no one there had seen one so big. But they did comfirm it was a Cuban Tree Frog.
Update:
I've had this big female Cuban Tree Frog for seven months now. In that time I've terminated 9 male Cuban Tree Frogs by freezing them. I've got this female trained to eat out of my hand. She has eaten live mice, blocks of scrambled eggs, a small dead bird, sliced turkey and a small live Green House Frog.
Will they eat their own species?
She would not eat her own species that were living in the cage with her. I thought that since she eats only what I hand to her that I should hand feed her a small Cuban Tree Frog. But when I tried this, rather than aggresively attack she turned away and made a sour face. I tried again and she retreated to hide under water.
