"The frogs have been found in increasing numbers in recent months, according to the WDFW. They prey on native insects and forage food eaten by native species."
"ISSAQUAH, Wash. — An invasive species is consuming and competing with native species in western Washington, including salmon.
Scientists have spotted African clawed frogs in Issaquah, Lacey and Bothell, and the Washington Department of Fish and Wildlife (WDFW) is asking residents to be part of the solution.
The WDFW, nonprofit Trout Unlimited and other partners are all working together to combat the growth of the frog population."
