"The frogs gained popularity as a low-cost pregnancy test in the 1940s and 1950s. Doctors would inject a frog with a woman's urine, and if she was pregnant, the frog would ovulate and produce eggs in 8 to 10 hours."

Rabbits were also used in a similar way in the 20s and 30s, though this test required the subsequent rabbit autopsy to verify results.
