Jumper Protests Human Folly

The New York Times reports:

Racing regulators kept hearing the reports: trainers were giving their horses a powerful performance-enhancing potion drawn from the backs of a type of South American frog.

When asked for a comment, Jumper the Frog responded,"This is an outrage against frogs and horses everywhere. Have these humans no shame?"

Jumper further stated that the Amphibian Protection Association is investigating rumors that members of the Board of Visitors of the University of Virginia have been licking frog backs in late night sessions in the gardens at Monticello. "If these rumors prove true," Jumper remarked, "the consequences will be most grave. Humans must not be allowed to continue acting like narcissistic damn fools. Frankly, they're stinking up the planet. They need to stop it. Right now."
