Giant frogs leap into combat using their charge attack.

Though giant frogs (the smallest variety) may flee or not attack opponents larger than themselves, the larger variety (dire, killer, and Abyssal) are ferocious and nearly mindless killing machines, attacking everything in sight that is not a frog.
