The third degree of Freemasonry and the rigorous procedures to advance to that level. The term may have been coined by nineteenth century New York City Police detective Thomas F.

The bugle developed from early musical or communication instruments made of animal horns, with the word bugle itself coming from buculus, Latin for bullock (castrated bull).
As a multi-cellular creature, the bullfrog is in the kingdom Animalia, also known as Metazoa. Animalia also contains fishes, arthropods, mammals, reptiles and many others. Bullfrogs belong to the phylum Chordates, a group of creatures characterized by having a rod that extends the length of the body. The subphylum is Vertebrata, or the vertebrates and the bullfrog's class is Amphibia, the amphibians including frogs and salamanders.
