Frogs eat insects primarily as a source of nutrition, as insects provide essential proteins, vitamins, and minerals that are crucial for their growth and survival. Being carnivorous, frogs have evolved to be efficient hunters, using their long, sticky tongues to catch insects quickly. This diet also helps control insect populations in their ecosystems, contributing to ecological balance. Additionally, feeding on insects supports their energy needs for activities such as mating, movement, and thermoregulation.

Tree frogs mostly don't have tongues, and they eat at close range. They catch insects crawling near them/they leap towards prey and snatch them up. They swallow the insects whole, and the food is digested in their mouths; it isn't chewed.
Why are frogs tongues notched in shape?
Frogs have notched or forked tongues to enhance their feeding efficiency. This unique shape allows them to capture and hold onto slippery prey, such as insects, more effectively. The notches help create a better grip, enabling the frog to quickly fling its tongue out and retract it to catch prey with precision. This adaptation is crucial for their survival in various environments.
