C'mon, I'm serious here. Some amphibians secrete substances that are hallucinogenic. Possibly a defence against predators, I'm not enough of a biologist to know. Some folks are tempted to try a bit of licking to see what it does to them; it has even been made illegal in Australia. Looks like it's frowned upon in Kansas, too.

Wait. Are we talking about amphibians? I thought "froglicking" meant kicking some French ass.
