Description: Kop (Thai script: กบ) is Thai for "frog". The photos shows a mesh bag full of live frogs waiting for a buyer at Chiang Mai's Thanin market. Frog meat (nearly the whole frog, not just the legs as in the West) in Thailand is mostly used in stir-fries and Thai curries. This species (Hoplobatrachus tigerinus, Indian bullfrog) is farmed, as is the American bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana).
