Big mama

Well, it might be... The European Common Frog sexes are very hard to distinguish, apart from the males song that is.
There can be some minor differences in hue and coloration, and normally the males throat turns lighter during the mating season.
Apart from that, males are distinguishable from females due to some small hard swellings (called nuptial pads) on their first finger.
