The water holding frog can draw its internal organs in tight to keep them all moist. They also secrete a form of mucus over themselves which preserves water in their bodies. They can go several years without water, and when it rains, they will all come up. Rainy season is mating season. When it rains, the males will look for a mate. Mating ensues quickly, and the tadpoles metamorphosis much quicker than an ordinary frogs.

Where do common frogs live?

They either live in a pond most likely or on some type of water. Most common frogs live near swampy places or by ponds, lakes, or creeks. But some frogs also live in the desert or in forests. That is really unlikely for a frog to live in a desert that is near no water.
