What is notable about the Goliath bullfrog?

• A. It can swim across a lake in minutes.
• B. It can leap the length of a car.
• C. It has the loudest croak of any frog.
• D. It can fly short distances.

Answer: (B)

The main idea here is the extraordinary jumping ability of the Goliath bullfrog. This species has very powerful hind legs, with long, strong muscles and tendons that store energy and release it in a rapid burst to propel the frog off the ground. For a large frog, that combination translates into leaps that cover surprising distances—enough to match the length of a car. This standout capability is why leaping a car-length is noted as what makes this frog notable. Other claims aren’t as defining: frogs can swim well, but crossing a lake in minutes isn’t a defining feature you’d most often hear about for this species; the croak of bullfrogs is loud, but not unique to this one; and frogs don’t fly, so short-distance flight isn’t accurate.
