Tadpoles start out having no legs for hopping. which is obvious since it has grown from the egg. Then it goes through a cycle. it first grows legs then loses its tail then well its ready to live on landbut it still must reapetly go to water or else it will dry out but it doesn't drinmk it it absorbs it through our skin!
