Mr. Chu Vu (30 years, Hung Yen) said: “When I was young, my friends and I used to take advantage of the rain that had just stopped to take each other to the fields or large ponds to catch frogs. Each of them carried a basket and hurriedly grabbed the fat frogs one by one. Every now and then, someone would scream and grab him.
