Airline passenger finds frog in food

An airline passenger on a flight from Melbourne to Wellington got a surprise when she found a live frog in her salad.

The woman was on a Qantas flight when she found the the whistling tree frog on top of her cucumber.

The woman managed to trap the creature in the salad box, preventing it from escaping, says the New Zealand Herald.

Cabin crew removed the container and notified New Zealand's Agriculture department who had quarantine staff waiting when the plane landed.

The 4cm brownish-coloured frog, a native of Australia, was taken from the plane and was put down.

A Qantas spokesman said the airline had changed its lettuce supplier since the incident and introduced "additional procedures into the salad supply process".
