Frogs - are usually better in water because they have looser hips and his hands are more stuck together witch can make him a bettter swimmer.

Toads - are usually bigger and usually better on land because their hands and feet are not really hooked together and their hips are not as loose as frogs so their survive better on land.

But - frogs and toads are they same in ways so please if you read this please help me save all frogs!

Well, a frog is an amphibian, and, like virtually all amphibians (there are only a select few exceptions), they lay their spawn in the water. The tadpoles hatch from the spawn in the pond, lake, stream etc. and are born with gills, just like fish. Then the external gills develop into internal gills. From then on the tadpole begins to develop lungs and when more developed, you will see the tadpoles rise to the surface and breath air before swimming away again. Eventually they completely lose their gills, by which time they would have metamorphosed and developed arms and legs with which to climb out of the water onto land, as a froglet. They become adults/sexually mature in 2 to 3 years, after which they would come back to the same pond they 'grew up' in and try and find a mate, thus the cycle repeats itself. Only 98% of those tadpoles that hatched will become adult frogs. Frogs generally live on land, but they do throughtout the year stay more or less around their original pond.

Frogs live not only on land but also on water because they belong to amphibians, meaning they can live both on land and water.

Tadpoles must live in water and breath with gills. Once the tadpole develops into a frog, the gills disappear and the frog can live in or out of water.
