In south- and east-asia mythology a frog lives in the moon. This is part of an australian aboriginal myth: "The frog opened his sleepy eyes, his big body quivered, his face relaxed, and, at last, he burst into a laugh that sounded like rolling thunder. The water poured from his mouth in a flood. It filled the deepest rivers and covered the land. Only the highest mountain peaks were visible, like islands in the sea. Many men and animals were drowned. The pelican-who was a blackfellow at this time -sailed from island to island in a great canoe and rescued any blackfellow he saw" - http://www.sacred-texts.com/aus/mla/mla09.htm http://www.sacred-texts.com/aus/mla/mla09.htm
