Want this question answered?
Toads breathe through their skin with whats called cutaneous gas exchange. They also have lungs for when they're out and about, but when in hibernation or submerged in water, they just use their skin.
The toads should be reasonably OK, though they do take quite a bit out into hibernation. Nothing catastrophic should happen to it for example death.
No most species are not able to move at all.
No. Toads breathe through their skin as well as through their lungs.
They bury themselves in mud or dirt and go into hibernation until spring.
How long can toads hibernate? The American toad, Anaxyrus americanus (formerly Bufo americanus) typically hibernates underground, below the frost line. In the Northeast, toads are driven into their burrows sometime between September and October and re-emerge from April to May.
their nostrils are holes that lead into the mouth. the air comes in through there and fills their lungs The toad normally breathes through its skin using whats called a cutaneous gas exchange. Toads also have lungs but while submerged in water or in hibernation, they just breathe through their skin.
The difference between hibernation and estivation. Hibernation - when animals such as mice and bees and chipmunks and such sleep during winter and live off of fat and food energy that they store for when they go into a deep sleep. Estivation - when animals such as frogs and toads go into a deep sleep when it gets too warm.
As all living things respire, even toads do respire too. It is just the matter of the way the living things respire. Toads breathe through their skin with whats called cutaneous gas exchange. They also have lungs for when they're out and about, but when in hibernation or submerged in water, they just use their skin. (Did I answer the question?) :D
Frogs and Toads need to hibernate to escape the winter so they dig into the ground up to 3 feet down to avoid the frost during the winter. Some frogs try to find a deep enough body of water that wont completely freeze solid and they can hibernate under the ice. Toads on the other hand will always dig into the ground and are great at digging. It's all to prepare for hibernation because insects don't come out during the winter so there's no food for toads and frogs. They start preparing to find a place during the fall.
Because, it will dehydrate without water, shrivel up then die.
it is frogs and toads.
