A frog needs help! Can you solve the riddle?

Thereโ€™s a lot of things in life that canโ€™t be predicted with total certainty and thatโ€™s where probability comes in. This technique is used to calculate how likely something is to happen.

In the video above, youโ€™re stranded in a rainforest, and youโ€™ve eaten a poisonous mushroom. To save your life, you need the antidote excreted by a local species of frog. Unfortunately, only the female frog produces the antidote. The male and female look identical but the male frog has a distinctive croak.ย Can you solve the puzzle using probability and get out alive?
