No they can't because they have to stay in water to breathe because they have gills but when they grow up to a frog they can do whatever they want in the outside world.

Do tadpoles cold or warm water?

Hi! Tadpoles usually live in like 70 to 85 degrees. They can not have very cold water, or very warm water. Also, Tadpoles need quite alot of space, if you were to put tadpoles in a regular sized fish bowl, you could probably be able to fit about 4-5 tadpoles. Hope this helpd!

yes. they are born as eggs in water, and hatch into water dependent tadpoles shortly after. over a course of months they start to grow limbs and be able to live in water and land. For normal they start as an egg soon they will turn into tadpoles and form legs to become frog-lets (England). 1.Eggs 2. Tadpoles 3. Frog-let 4.Adult Frog for England & Advance.

Why a tadpole live in water?

Tadpoles live in the water because that is where they were laid and they're lungs are not fully developed yet. Also its just an amphibian thing. For more info on tadpoles: Tadpoles are young amphibians that live in the water. During the tadpole stage of the amphibian life cycle, most respire by means of autonomous external or internal gills. They do not usually have arms or legs until the transition to adulthood, and typically have dorsal or fin-like appendages and a tail with which they swim by lateral undulation, similar to most fishes. As a tadpole matures, it most commonly metamorphosizes by gradually growing limbs and then (most commonly in the case of frogs) outwardly absorbing its tail by apoptosis. Lungs develop around the time of leg development, and tadpoles late in development will often be found near the surface of the water, where they breathe air. During the final stages of external metamorphosis, the tadpole's mouth changes from a small, enclosed mouth at the front of the head to a large mouth the same width as the head. The intestines shorten to make way for the new diet.[3] Most tadpoles are herbivorous, subsisting on algae and plants. Some species are omnivorous, eating detritus and, when available, smaller tadpoles.[4] However, other tadpoles are normally safe from cannibalistic predation because all tadpoles in a given body of water are the same age and, therefore, the same size. An exception to the rule of distinct differences between the tadpole (juvenile) and adult (frog, toad, salamander etc) stages is the axolotl. Axolotls exhibit a property called neoteny, meaning that they reach sexual maturity without undergoing metamorphosis.
