Life is good for Frogs in India! Every year young girls marry frogs to ward off evil and diseases.
But then, like every where else, some damn government bureaucrat has to step in and screw things up.

Villupuram district collector R Palaniswamy told TOI that he had deputed a team led by the district social welfare officer to visit the village and submit a detailed report. “The district administration proposes to evolve comprehensive schemes to motivate and enlighten the villagers against such evil and ignorant practises,” he said. But all these years the strange practice has been going on unchecked. (Source: The Times of India)

Sooner or later this kind of discrimination has to end.
