Fireflies are toxic/dangerous to frogs! Different frog foods, please.

Fireflies are highly toxic when eaten by animals IRL. I don't want kids seeing frogs eat fireflies in-game and think they can feed fireflies (which also have a population issue) to their pets, which could get sick and, if it's ANY amphibian or reptile, likely not survive. I don't want a worse version of the parrot/cookie situation. Please fix this Mojang! <3 I trust y'all to do what you did with parrots and find a better solution. Maybe add mosquitos, flies, or some other small insect for the frogs to eat?

    I feel like they'd have to find another use for Fireflies then if they did change it. Mosquitos would make more sense to feed them though.

    It's the parrot all over again. XD (for anyone who did not know, during snapshots the parrot was able to eat cookies. The community quickly responded that chocolate was deadly to parrots so it was changed to seeds instead.

    Another alternative could be frogs just licking the sky as if there were insects there.

    Frogs should be able to "eat", "consume" and/or "hurt" Vexes and Allays, they would be additional food source for them aside Fireflies.

    Adding flies or mosquitoes would be a better source of food.

    Ah, so I found the person who told Mojang that Fireflies are poisonous to Frogs. Once I find out where you live, I will beat the living shit out of you
