Apparently, the world's population of talking frogs have turned their allegiance from Budweiser and are now shilling for <a href="http://autoblog.com/ford">Ford</a> of Australia. At least, those that haven't been smashed into great green globs of greasy, grimy cane toad guts.<br />
<br />
Let's set the scene: A pair of Australian cane toads - the species, native to Central and South America, was imported into Australia in an unsuccessful attempt to control Beetle populations - are having a nighttime chat on a random road somewhere in Oz. The subject matter ranges from the tastiness and arousing properties of the toads' own back secretions to the velocity with which a four-cylinder car can travel. In this case, the car is powered by one of Ford's turbocharged EcoBoost engines.<br />
<br />
And then... disaster strikes. It's certainly an odd advertisement, but at least it's unique. Oh, and if you're a member of PETA, you might want to look away.
