* ''WebVideo/{{Vinesauce}}'': Invoked. Vinny absolutely despises Bunji the frog, a character from ''The Gigglebone Gang'' series of {{edutainment game}}s. Whenever Vinny plays the games on stream, he talks about Bunji's ExtremeOmnivore habits in a scathing way. Because of this, Vinny and his fans have made Bunji a MemeticPsychopath, twisting him into a gluttonous, evil abomination who will eat anything, even [[EatTheDog animals]] or [[ImAHumanitarian people]].

* ''Film/MuppetsMostWanted'' features Constantine, the film's BigBad and the EvilCounterpart of Kermit the Frog. Constantine [[IdenticalStranger bears a striking resemblance to Kermit]], with the main differences being a mole on his right cheek and a shorter collar. Constantine breaks out of prison and frames Kermit so that he can take over the Muppets in an attempt to steal priceless jewels. While still [[LaughablyEvil being just as humorous as any regular Muppet]], [[VileVillainSaccharineShow he is willing to manipulate, incriminate, and even commit mass murder]].

In fiction, amphibians can be large and aggressive enough to be a bona-fide threat, with a sticky tongue very conducive to devouring humans in one gulp. Even normal-sized ones can be dangerous, as these often have some sort of poison attack. (Several RealLife species are indeed poisonous, but only if you try to eat them, as a rule.)

->''And the Lord spoke to Moses, "Go to Pharaoh and say to him, 'Thus says the Lord: "Let My people go, that they may serve Me. But if you refuse to let them go, behold, I will smite all your territory with frogs. So the river shall bring forth frogs abundantly, which shall go up and come into your house, into your bedroom, on your bed, into the houses of your servants, on your people, into your ovens, and into your kneading bowls. And the frogs shall come up on you, on your people, and on all your servants." ' " ... So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt, and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt.''

Added DiffLines:

* ''VideoGame/LooneyTunes'': Frogs appear as enemies in Stages 5 and 7. They're rather simple to beat, but watch for their high jumps. A bipedal sunglasses-wearing frog also serves as a mini-boss in both stages. Like his smaller counterparts, he's also capable of jumping, with the added threat of causing a tremor when he lands that stuns your character.
