Canta Ranas (Singing Frogs) is a multi-generational Latino gang in East Los Santos, founded in the late 1940s to early 1950s, it is amongst one of the oldest gangs from that area.  According to locals and federal law enforcment, the gang chose the name 'Canta Ranas' due to the frogs in the area croaking loudly during heavy rains. Known as a violent gang, with many members of the organisation known to be affiliated with the Mexican Mafia and have deep roots within drug trafficking. One of the known traditions of the gang is have to 'earn your frogs', in order to have a frog tattoo'd on you. The only way these frogs are earned is through murder.

 

In recent years however, many affiliated members of the gang were sentenced to federal prison. It was alleged at this time that 51 members of the Canta Ranas organisation were named in an indictment alleging violations of the racketeer influenced and corrupt organisations act (RICO). This was a major hit to the organisation and has attributed to a significant collapse in the organisational structure of the gang.

Rene 'Woody' Grajeda was born on October 12th, 1995 near El Rancho Blvd, East Los Santos. Raised in an area known to be at the time dominated by the 'Canta Ranas' (Singing Frogs) gang, Woody was indoctrinated into the gang life like many others from his family. Having a relatively troublesome upbringing plagued by neglect and abuse, Woody turned to alcohol and drugs as a form of escape from the obstacles of life set before him. From his early teenage age, Woody has been addicted to heroin and this continues to be a vice that dictates almost every area of his life. Amplified by his dedication to his gang and neighborhood, Woody was eager to make a name for himself in his neighborhood which in turn lead to him being charged with kidnapping and getting federal prison time. During his time in prison, Woody made aquaintances with members of the Mexican Mafia and earned a reputation for himself as being a reliable individual which carried throughout his tenure. Upon his release, Woody tried to return his life to some normality as he knew best and upon his release, Woody was given approval to transfer into Victor "Big Midget" Arroyo's crew.
