Frog, Journalism Dead

Miracle frozen frog dies

THE Territory frog that made national news after it survived being frozen solid in a freezer has died.

Sue Hoddinott found the frog in the freezer at a Darwin cafeteria on Monday, and when convinced to thaw it out, it came back to life.

But she returned to her Karama home on Thursday to find it dead.

"The poor little mite passed away," she said. "I came home ... and he had carked it.

And that, my friends, is why I'll never visit Darwin. That city moves at such a breakneck pace that I think it would kill me.

I really do.
