A major road in Greece was forced to shut down for hours after an invasion of millions of frogs.
Greek officials said that the massed rank of frogs forced a key highway near the town of Langadas in the north of the country to close for two hours on May 26.
Giorgos Thanoglou, chief of traffic police in Thessaloniki, said that there were “millions of frogs on the road. It was like a carpet of frogs”.
Authorities had to shut the Egnatia highway down after three cars skidded off the road as their drivers tried to dodge frogs.
Giorgos Thanoglou suggested that the amphibian’s influx could have been due to the frogs leaving a nearby lake to forage for food.
