      Interesting. 'Krapo' is the only word we use for frogs. We also use i in a couple of idioms:
      Fè kòlè krapo - to unnecessarily be upset.
      or
      Krapo fè kòlè, li mouri san dèyè.
      The frog gets upset, and it dies with no buttocks
      meaning
      It's not worth it to fret over some things
