No, a tadpole is the larva of frogs, which makes it technically an amphibian. It is, even though it lives in water and has gills. Anyway, it's not a mammal because 1.) It doesn't have hair/fur, 2.) It doesn't have its young live, 3.) it doesn't feed its young with milk. Hope this helps, User Ameobea The Tadpole is the young of the frog which is an amphibian.

Although, by definition, an amphibian is capable of living in & out of water but returns to water to spawn, the tadpole does neither.

It does not spawn until it has developed into a mature adult (frog) and nor can it survive out of water.

A mammal on the otherhand is defined by that fact that it gives birth to a live youngster which is, for all intents and purposes, a replica of it's parents.
