I am Frog.  I am Toad.  I am your canary.

          I am Frog.  Once miners carried canaries into the mines to warn through their death of unseen gas.  Now I am your canary.

          I am Toad.  In case you hadn't heard, my numbers are declining rapidly throughout the globe.  In some places where I am still born, I am deformed--five legs, two heads, four eyes, a tail.

          I am Frog.  By my death I warn you of unseen danger.  Danger lurking in the ground, the water, the air.  Pollution everywhere.

          I am Toad.  By my death I call to you.  Try to awaken you before it is too late.  What kills me will kill you, too.

          I am Frog.  I am Toad.  I am your canary.
