Mountain chickens surviving in Montserrat

Conservationists say endangered frogs reintroduced to the Caribbean island of Montserrat are surviving in their new home.

The frogs dubbed mountain chickens are among the world's largest frog species.

Due to their size (some weigh up to 900g) they have very large meaty thighs.

Their numbers have reportedly declined by as much as 80% in the wild due in part to a fungal disease and local hunters who say the meat taste like chicken.

In the past it was served in restaurants and hotels.
