Frogs

Frogs open and close their mouths to breathe. They don't have diaphragms to help them breathe, so they use muscles in their mouth to push air into their lungs. They also use this action to help them swallow food.

Licking a frog can be dangerous as some frogs produce toxins that can be harmful or even deadly if ingested. While some species of frogs secrete toxins that can have psychoactive effects when touched, it is not safe or recommended to intentionally lick a frog to get high.

I know for a fact that salt does indeed affect frogs; from my observations it appears as though the salt burns the frogs and they will run off in search of water to wash the salt away. As to exactly how it works...I currently am researching that answer myself.

Yes, chlorine can kill frog eggs. It is important to avoid exposing frog eggs to chlorine or other harmful chemicals to protect the health of the developing embryos. If frog eggs are in an area treated with chlorine, they should be relocated to a safe environment.

Frogs hatched from eggs. Eggs hatch into fishlike young called tadpoles which grow and eventually undergo metamorphosis, a change in body form, to become adults. But some frogs do not have a tadpole stage, instead, tiny froglets hatch directly from the eggs.

Tadpoles take different amounts of time to develop depending on the species and environmental conditions. Factors like water temperature and food availability can affect their growth rate. It's normal for tadpoles to still be tadpoles after 2 months, and development can take several weeks to several months before they metamorphose into frogs.

No, fake birds like owls are unlikely to repel frogs as they do not pose a threat to them. To keep frogs away from your bedroom window, you can try reducing lighting, closing curtains at night, or using sound deterrents specifically designed for repelling frogs.

A frog is an amphibious animal that typically has a moist skin, webbed feet, and bulging eyes. Frogs also have the ability to jump long distances and they lay their eggs in water.

No, frogs are not typically found in guacamole dip. Guacamole is made from avocados, onions, tomatoes, and seasonings - not frogs.

I would guess the one legged ones don't, they hobble. Just kidding, yes all Frogs jump but not all amphibians jump. Frogs are part of a larger class of animals called amphibians which are ectothermic (or cold-blooded) animals that metamorphose from a juvenile, water-breathing form to an adult, air-breathing form.

Most turtle breeds have their tails hidden within their shell, but others have exposed tails. Their tails are sometimes hidden, but they usually come out when the turtle is swimming faster than usual or is trying to.

Males usually have black markings on their arms and will be somewhat smaller. However, do not depend on size alone to determine. Males are usually the vocal ones as well.

The above comment on black markings on the arms does not by any means go for all frog species. Vocalization is a more general clue. If you should happen to find to frogs clamped together the one on top is the male.

The black markings referred to are called nuptial pads, they are used to help the male grasp the female and do not occur in all species. The majority of frogs only develop them during the breeding season anyway. Most males are smaller than females but not always. My Gargantua was a big boy and he was larger than all of the females I have seen. Any frog that calls for a mate is a male. Distress calls don't count, females can make those as well. Males are often more brightly coloured but this is not universal. And yes, if you find two frogs mating, the male is always on top.

Female frogs are generally larger, and males frogs generally have a dark patch on its feet or toes to 'grip' the female with during mating, but it varies between each species. in most species only males sing, and males and females throats may be a different colour. before you can tell the difference you will have to work out wich species your frog is.

Pacman frogs.

Another opinion:

Pacman frogs are the worst type of pet frog, along with bullfrogs and pixie frogs.

Get a green tree frog, White's tree frog, African Dwarf Frog, and any type of tree frog. They are the best!

Yes, handling frogs can stress them out and potentially cause harm if not done gently. It's best to avoid picking up wild frogs unless necessary, and if you do, make sure to wash your hands before and after to protect both yourself and the frog from bacteria.

I have a western chorus frog that loves to eat house flies. (P.S. They don't have a long tongue!) ;)

Snakes have fewer eggs because they tend to invest more energy in producing larger and more developed offspring compared to frogs. This strategy increases the chances of survival for their offspring. Frogs, on the other hand, produce many eggs with less investment in each, increasing the odds of at least some surviving to adulthood.

The frog you are referring to is likely the American Green Tree Frog (Hyla cinerea). These frogs are typically green on their head with a brown body and can have spots on their legs. They are commonly found in the southeastern United States, including in the state of Mississippi.

The coloration of a frog can help it blend in with its surroundings, providing camouflage from predators. Bright colors may also serve as a warning to predators that the frog is toxic or distasteful. Additionally, certain patterns or colors can help frogs attract mates during breeding season.

The external part of the frog, such as its skin, is responsible for respiration, protection against pathogens, and regulation of body temperature. Additionally, the skin of a frog helps in absorbing water and nutrients.

Waste empties into the cloaca, which is a multi-functional opening in frogs used for excretion, reproduction, and digestion. From the cloaca, waste is expelled out of the frog's body through the vent.

Yes, a frog can survive without its tongue. While the tongue is important for catching prey, frogs can still eat by using other methods like flicking their jaw to capture prey or by swallowing it whole.

It depends on the species. Most, like toads and pond frogs, aren't very smart at all. But some frogs, like tree frogs and poison dart frogs, seem to be much smarter, but still not as smart as, for example, lizards or mammals.

The perception of dissecting a frog being nasty or unpleasant varies from person to person. Some people may find it unpleasant due to the smell, appearance, or ethical concerns, but others may see it as a valuable learning experience in understanding biology and anatomy. Ultimately, it depends on individual preferences and perspectives.
