Locals were amazed by this three-legged frog which was found swimming in a garden pond.<br /><br />Pensioner Wichai Saengnoi, 69, was having his fence fixed when the workers noticed the amphibian in Roi-Et, north-eastern Thailand last Thursday (January 9).<br /><br />They told the homeowner, who then captured the frog to move it out of his garden when he noticed its fascinating mutation.<br /><br />Footage shows how the frog has a third leg protruding from its hips like a long tail.<br /><br />The extra limb even has a webbed foot and moves just like the other two, giving the frog extra power when swimming through the water.<br /><br />Wichai said he will keep the ''lucky frog'' at home to make offerings to it before releasing it back into the pond. <br /><br />He said that frog has a ''calm temperament'' unlike some of the other frogs in his pond.<br /><br />The pensioner added said: "I'm not an expert in science, but I know that frogs normally only have two legs. <br /><br />"This frog has another leg growing from where the tail would have been when it was tadpole. But this is definitely a leg, because it moves and has a foot, too.<br /><br />"This frog is more friendly than a normal frog so I will take care of it for a while before I will release it to the nature.I hope it brings me good luck.''
