Estivation or aestivation is a rare state of dormancy similar to hibernation,
land snails and desert frogs, which estivate in dry conditions,
Snails also estivate during periods of heat during the day
California red-legged frog, may estivate to conserve energy when their food and water supply is low.
Otala lactea or the edible snail enter estivation when environmental conditions are dry and food availability is low
Some frog species estivate, but not all do.
The animals that estivate are earthworms, bees, frogs, toads, hedgehog, snail, snakes, mud turtle, and lizards.
no
The frogs either estivate during hot weather or the salivate. I don't know if this helps at all; I got this information from my science teacher and she said that I had to figure it out for myself so I really don't know.
No, snails don't kill frogs they actual help frogs by eating harmful bacteria.

During estivation, an animal may burrow into the ground or find a cool, damp place to reduce its metabolic rate and conserve energy during hot and dry conditions. Some examples of animals that estivate include snails, frogs, and salamanders. Estivation is a survival strategy that helps these animals avoid the stresses of extreme heat and dehydration.
Frogs, birds, and alligators.
