Essentially, the larval stage in a species' development cycle renders a specimen as a different type of lifeform than the adult stage does. Tadpoles resemble small fish such as minnows much more than adult frogs so they are labelled as larvae. Mammals look pretty much the same throughout life, so they are not said to have a larval stage. Larvae feed rapidly to fuel the metamorphosis into adulthood. See the related Wikipedia link for a much more detailed explanation.

What was a frog before it became a tadpole?
Frogspawn, then tadpole, then frog
What developesfirst on a tadpole front or back legs?
In tadpoles, the front legs typically develop before the back legs. During the metamorphosis from tadpole to frog, the front limbs appear first, allowing the tadpole to start moving more effectively on land. The back legs develop later, enabling the tadpole to jump and swim more efficiently as it fully transitions into a frog.
What happens after the tadpole hatch?
After a tadpole hatches, it will typically feed on algae and plant matter. As it grows, it will start to develop limbs and its tail will reduce in size. Eventually, it will undergo metamorphosis and transform into a frog or toad.
