From my experience imported adult frogs have a homing instinct and at mating season will seek the pond where they were grew up as a tadpole. I am not sure if this has been scientifically proven. In my opinion, if you want the adult frogs to be fairly permenant residents of your pond it is best to have them develop in the pond as tadpoles. Often during summer adult bullfrogs will leave the pond and forage in other areas which is "risky business" as far as survival is concerned. Adult bullfrogs are very pedatory and in favor of cannibalism.
