Crab-eating Frog

Did you read the newspaper the "?" red dot. There was this report on a quite interesting animal.
This is the report:
The Crab-eating Frog occurs in a range of habitats including coastal scrub, marshes, disturbed forests and mangroves where it can tolerate brackish water. This species, along with the Blyth's Giant Frog Limnonectes blythii, is favoured for its eating quality and is often farmed for its edible legs.

The patterning on its dorsal surface (see inset) is an aid to identification, as well as the extensive webbing on its hind feet. Some specimens may possess a vertebral stripe.

This frog is found in West Malaysia, Singapore, and possibly southern Thailand.

Sorry I cannot get the picture.
"?"is the word Ido not know.
