Frogs jump around as a way of moving. They are built with large leg muscles and the way frogs use them is to jump. A four legged animal is usually proportioned enough to be able to walk on all four of its legs. But frogs have very small arms that are not capable of being used all the time in walking. Besides leaping is a very efficient way to move for the little creatures. They can easily leap jump after prey. Or they can quickly jump away from predators. I hope this helped.

By the way, toads usually hop and frogs usually leap. There's a slight difference.

Can tomato frogs jump really high?

The height to which a frog can jump is difficult to assess. Some biologists report leaps of 2 meters or more. We usually just measure how far a frog can jump. The longest of the measured leaps is about 7 meters. Frogs have been known to jump out of trees and cover distances of many tens of meters in a kind of glide. a frog can jump more than 2.5 meters roughly can jump 3 meters.


How far would a flea and a frog jump if combined?

Well, if humans could jump as high as a flea, they could jump over the empire state building. So given that frogs are about 1/10th the size of a human, if a frog could jump as high as a flea, they could probably jump 1/10th of the empire state building, or about 125 feet high.
