Ethical dimension of consuming frog components for medical and research purposes

Amphibians are known to possess a moist integumentary system which plays a vital role in its cutaneous respiration. In addition to this, its skin also possesses granular and mucus glands which secrete several potent bioactive compounds that enable them to protect themselves against predators and mic...
