Definitely true
The
African Reed Frog is one example, it is also quite common in certain types of Wrasse (Fish), normally when the Male/Female balance is not correct
There are some reports from the US that state that certain agri-chemicals are causing frogs to spontaneously change sex
Many of the live-bearing fresh and brackish water fishes, such as swordtails, platies, and mollies, will also change sex from female to male. I've seen it happen with swordtails in my own aquariums.
