Frogs are carnivorous, and will eat a variety of insects such as flies, mosquitoes, moths, beetles and crickets, as well as worms, slugs and snails. Contrary to popular opinion, they are not all insectivorous as some species may eat lizards, small fish, other frogs, reptiles such as baby freshwater turtles, small birds and even mammals such as rodents and small bats, though only the larger frogs, such as the African Bullfrog, can manage these.

Frogs eat almost anything that they can fit into their mouth. There have even been some documented cases of frogs suffocating while trying to swallow something too large for them and refusing to let it go. They have teeth, but these are not used for chewing: rather, they are used for gripping their food. These are called maxillary teeth.
