yes...they can. I have a small frog in my backyard that I absolutely adore! Crazy I know, but he comes around at the same time every night and just kinda hangs out on the porch. I was planting some flowers around June, and when I put the shovel in the ground this little frog jumped up and it only had three limbs. I realized that I had cut it with the shovel, and felt horrible. He survived, and still comes around everynight. I have been watching him, and he has begun to grow a stump from the area that his front leg/arm was missing. It has tripled in size in the past few months, and he is beginning to use it as if he had a normal arm. I researched amphibian regeneration and found that yes, it is possible. They form a stump called a blastema on the site of detachment to form the basis for the limb, and eventually a normal, scar free limb will replace the old one and have fully restored function.
