Confusion begins to arise in the tropics, where iconic species like poison-arrow frogs could really be classed as toads due to their ability to crawl/climb. True frogs always hop.

What is the Northern Cricket Frog's call?
"Gik-gik-gik-gik" is the call of the Northern Cricket Frog (Acris crepitans).
Specifically, the voice of the Northern Cricket Frog is a series of clicks that start out and end up being repeated quite slowly. In between the beginning and the end of the call, the clicks speed up into groupings of twos and threes. The sound is similar to that of the tapping of two small stones against each other.
What is the same of a frog and a koala?
Like other mammals, koalas give birth to live young; they feed their young with milk; they breathe using lungs rather than gills; they have hair; and they are warm-blooded, all of which are characteristics of mammals.
Koalas, specifically, belong to a group of mammals known as marsupialia, or marsupials. They are mammals in every sense of the word, but they also have a pouch in which most of the development of the young joey occurs. Other marsupials include the kangaroo, wallaby, wombat, Tasmanian Devil, possum, opossum, quokka, quoll, numbat and phascogale, just to name a few.

What do frogs do to breathe since they're lungs are poorly developed?
Beacuause they are smal and even us humans have small lungs compared to our bodys

you will need a 2 liter bottle, scissors, duct tape, and bait ( small frog, minnows, mouse, small lizard, insects, etc...)
1. cut the top 1/3 off the bottle
2. put the bait in the bottom 2/3 of the bottle
3. after step 2 quickly put the top 1/3 of the bottle reversed in the bottom 2/3 of the bottle
4. seal the top 1/3 in the bottom 2/3 with the tape
5. place the trap where snakes travel (walls, along houses, in bushes, along fences, along forest edges, etc...) check the trap frequently, when you find the snake in the trap unseal the trap and release it in the woods or keep it as a pet ( do not kill it).
