EN: bullfrog, large toad
This is the 'final boss' version of the regular palaka. It’s the big, bumpy, and sometimes scary-looking toad that you find near ponds. Its voice isn't just 'kokak,' it's bass-boosted. It's the type that when it jumps, the ground seems to shake.
'Kabkab' can mean 'to palpitate' or 'throb', possibly referring to its loud, throbbing croak. It is often used to refer to a bullfrog.
