The tip of the tongue is flipped out to catch insects. Many animals, particularly frogs and some species of lizards, use their long, sticky tongues to quickly extend and capture prey. This rapid movement allows them to catch insects effectively as they fly or move nearby. The specialized structure of the tongue aids in the quick retraction and adhesion needed for successful feeding.
