Where do you get a frog that does this?

This doesn’t look fake, but I wonder … is it?

Some pet shops sell them as Pixie Frogs (a nickname based on the Latin name Pyxicephalus adspersus). When they are little you’d be fooled into thinking it’s a cute little passive frog. Then it grows up and you find out it’s a very aggressive and powerful predator, oops. While I can’t be certain the video isn’t faked it certainly seems probable that teasing it could lead to it getting overly aggressive.

Do they also sell “Pixie Alligators” and “Pixie Rattlesnakes”?
