Frog hunters nabbed in Manipur Assam Tribune | Imphal, July 7 Unlike other poachers, frog hunters in Manipur move in groups searching for good sites.

When they switch on their torch lights on the water, the eyes of frogs glitter making them easy preys for the hunters who chase and catch them. A hunter could harvest about 50 frogs a night and 3/4 hunter groups could harvest about 40,000 frogs in a month if they are lucky enough. Such groups hand over their collection to a collector who purchase them at Rs 5 - 7 per frog according to their size. Read Full News @ goo.gl/FKvmGF
