Learned a new thing about tadpoles last week - not only they can become cannibals, they are not opposed on "eating" anything that falls in the pond. Be it grass stalks, bread, wood and... *drumroll* a drowned mouse. One had fallen in the pond and my mom fished it out, but by the looks of it, they would have eaten it in time. And there you are thinking about, how harmless and toothless frogs are... :D

"That does not make sense," Elfie replied after thinking about the statement and casting a glance at his own tail. It had not got any shorter, quite the contrary. And his legs had grown longer as well. So, why did different rules apply to him and tadpoles? Weren't they from the same stock? He thought about these complex things, but was unable to word them properly.

"Why?" he asked then.
