2. The Plague of Frogs

After the Nile was struck, the land teemed with frogs. Modern scholars often interpret this as an ecological chain reaction: polluted or toxic water would force frogs to abandon their habitat en masse. Contemporary accounts of mass frog migrations, sometimes triggered by environmental stress, support this theory. As National Geographic notes, amphibians are extremely sensitive to changes in their surroundings. This plague may have been a dramatic, natural consequence of earlier events, showing how interconnected ecological systems can unleash chaos.
