A special frog discovered in a southeast Missouri backyard has a lot of people talking.

"It's a freak of nature," says Scott City, Missouri resident Jim Menees.

What Menees and others are talking about is the six-legged frog discovered by the kid next door.

"I think we are going to see more of these creatures," says Menees.

But don't underestimate the strength of these creatures.

"For a little frog he's stout," says Menees.

Menees tells outreach science educator Jason Lindsey he's willing to donate his "freak of nature" to science.

What do you think about this unique frog?
