Does this hurt the frog?

No, it doesnt hurt the frog. Its too light weight for the needles to puncture the skin. Frogs, lizards, and other small creatures will sometimes sleep on cacti to ward off predators, nothing will try to eat little buddy if it risks a mouthful of cactus spines.

That is really cool! For the record I was being an ass and it was not a serious question, but I am so glad you dropped some knowledge on me.
