Firefighters rescued pet frog from burning home

Firefighters in Fort Worth, Texas, rescued a pet frog from a burning home and returned the amphibian to the daughter of the homeowners, who were out of town.



Battalion Chief Richard Harrison said that firefighters have saved dogs and cats before, but said it's the first time he recalls a frog rescued. Firefighters were dispatched on Tuesday night to the fire in Westworth Village.

Crews searched the house and found no humans while bringing fire blaze under control, but then Jamie Wilson arrived and asked fire crews to look for her family's frog.



A firefighter located the unscathed frog in its glass container. Authorities are trying to determine what sparked the fire that caused about $60,000 in damage.
