This frog was hopped into quarantine by officers out on patrol in response to coronavirus.
The Newark Police team briefly detained the frog spotted on a cycle track and placed him in some greenery to self-isolate.
Officers praised members of the public who, unlike the frog, were observing social distancing measures while out and about. They added everyone had a role to play in reducing the spread of the virus.
They said: "A big thank you from Nottinghamshire Police, as I am sure you'll appreciate our amazing NHS will be so grateful."
Operation BION is a Nottinghamshire Police patrolling initiative in response to the coronavirus pandemic.
