Leap Frog
When that little Aussie devil Mark hears that Uncle Pete and Annie are going to eat snails in the local French restaurant, he sees a brilliant way to make some money. He'll collect a bucketful from the garden and send them along.
Luckily he hears about the dangers to the local frog population in time and decides to help save them - because they would have been next in line!
