Amazingly, the frog – which was discovered to be a male tree frog, though the exact type is not known – survived the 5,700-mile trip from South America to the English town. The incident occurred Nov. 28, according to South West News Service.
A frog found hiding in a bunch of bananas is thought to have traveled all the way from Ecuador, before being collected by the RSPCA at a supermarket in Northampton.
Employees contacted the Royal Society for the Prevention of Cruelty to Animals (RSPCA), who took the frog. The frog has since been nicknamed Juan, SWNS reports.

Greg Hagen, animal collection officer for the RSPCA, told SWNS he too was shocked by the creature.
“When ‘frog in Tesco’ appeared on my list of jobs, it was a bit of a surprise,” he said.
Fortunately, the employees at the store were able to properly look after the amphibian. (AFP/File)
