Why is the interaction a frogs digestive and circulatory system important for its survival?
Well.... The frog needs nutrients in order to survive. When the frog would eat its food, the food would go down through the digestive system, where obviously the food would break down. Then the circulatory system would take the broken down food and spread the nutrients that were taken from the food, all across the frogs body.
So the main answer is that a frogs digestive and circulatory system are important for its survival because the frog needs nutrient given to its body. The two systems work together to break down the food and spread the nutrients across the frogs body.

The function of frog skin is to regulate moisture and fluid transfer. This is why frogs live near lakes, ponds, and streams. This is also why it is not good to hold a frog for too long. Your dry hands will cause the frog's skin to become dry.
Also, most frogs and toads breathe (and take in moisture) through their skin through a process called cutaneous gas exchange, but they also have lungs with which they breathe. This helps in it's early stages of life while living in water.

Can you release tadpoles back into the wild?
According to amphibiancare.com/frogs/caresheets/americantoad, "Never release an amphibian back into the wild once in your care to avoid introducing foreign pathogens to wild populations. Instead, only collect a toad if you intend to keep it for its entire life."
Other sources state: Toads kept in captivity for months or years can carry diseases into the wild that do not affect domestic toads but can seriously affect wild toads and such.
In addition, an older toad that you've kept may not be able to cope alone, fend for itself, or find its own food if simply released back into the wild.
Therefore, if you can no longer keep your toad, please hand him or her over to an animal welfare agency or an animal welfare sanctuary who will provide a good home and more space in a natural but safe environment.

Are there poisonous frogs in New York?
The answer is most certainly yes. I was "stung" by one a couple days ago (early July) at East River Park while sitting under a tree. I felt some burning on my neck, reached into my shirt and pulled out an inch long caterpillar. It was white, with two long yellow hairs protruding from the front, as well as 2 long yellow, and 2 orange hairs protruding from the rear. It burned and itched immediately. Two days later, I currently still have tiny red bumps that look and feel similar to a poison ivy rash. Who knew?!?
