How long is the memory of a tadpole?

Answer 1

It depends on the species. In Australia, where I live, there are frogs that live in the desert, with amazingly fast-growing tadpoles that mature in a week, before the water can dry up. Some species of bullfrog, however, may take three or four years.

Answer 2

First of all, there are over 5000 species of frogs and toads, not to mention the other amphibian types that have tadpoles. These animals form a highly diverse group in terms of size, habitat, and life history. As with most broad questions, the answer to this question is quite highly variable; some tadpoles can go from tadpole to frog within a few weeks, where other species take several years to completely transform into a frog or juvenile adult form.

Answer 3

It all depends on the species of the frog or bullfrog. I believe it can be as short as 8 weeks up to 6 months.

Answer 4

A tadpole can take from 4 weeks -2 years I think. Most tadpoles take only a month or two. I have 8 and but only one has transformed.

Answer 5

as long as it lives as a tadpole.

Answer 6

3 weeks
