How does a gastric brooding frog feed?

The Gastric Brooding Frogs eat insects which are found in the environment surrounding them. They eat flying or crawling insects by flicking their tongue at them. They also feed upon swimming insects, because they are one of the few frogs that can use their long legs to swim, by extending them. They feed on swimming insects the same way they do flying or crawling. I hope this helps :)
