A small frog usually found hopping from tree to tree in Costa Rica was discovered on top of bunch of bananas – in a Nottinghamshire Lidl store.

It was spotted by staff who were unloading fruit at the supermarket in Great Northern Way, Netherfield.

RSPCA and animal collection officer (ACO) Hayley Day was called to the store on Sunday, May 12.

She said: “The little tree frog was sat on top of some of bananas which staff had started to unload and put on the shelves.

“I managed to get him inside a box with wet tissue paper inside to keep him moist.

“Staff seemed quite taken with him and called him Lloyd - he must have also had quite the shock when he emerged in a Nottinghamshire supermarket considering he’s used to more tropical climates usually."

ACO Day took the tree frog to a specialist keeper who will look after him.

He confirmed the frog, called Lloyd, originates from Costa Rica, in Central America - more than 5,000 miles away.
