I found the cutest little frog in the bottom of my romaine lettuce tonight- it’s too cold to set him outside (27 degrees), but he’s been living in the lettuce in the fridge for several days now- does anyone know what I should do so that he doesn’t die? pic.twitter.com/usaCIEWaLv

A single package of lettuce, purchased by Simon Curtis, a 35-year-old American from Tulsa, Oklahoma, was anything but a food container. Inside, the man can only notice an unexpected presence. It was about a little frog, which Simon quickly took to heart, so much so that he decided to share his story, which quickly went viral on the web.
While many people would have reacted to the sight of a small amphibian living in a sachet of lettuce with amazement or sent the animal back to the wild, Curtis did not. The 35-year-old opened the bag of lettuce on December 20, 2021 and decided from there to document on Twitter a story that doesn’t look like it’s going to end.

According to him, it was too cold to release the frog into the wild . So what to do? After a quick thought, Simon decided to give this curious green amphibian a name and take care of it as it would any other pet. This is how her friendship with Tony was born.
After arranging a special living space for the frog, he fed and cared for it following the advice of many people who made themselves available to him for any information he needed. His plans for the future? Further improve Tony’s living environment , recreate it specifically according to all of his natural needs. And Simon couldn’t be happier about it all.
