FROGS
  • (Can you be a FROG?)

What are Frogs?
  • Frogs are a kind of small animal belonging to the
    amphibian group (animals with backbones).
  • This means they live part of their life in water
    and the other part of it on land.
  • Their skin absorbs water into their body so they
    do not have to drink water to survive.

Did You Know?

When a frog swallows a meal, his bulgy
eyeballs will close and go down into his head!
This is because the eyeballs apply pressure and
actually push a frog's meal down his throat!

Crazy Facts About Frogs
  • Frogs were the first land animals with vocal
    cords. Male frogs have vocal sacspouches of skin
    that fill with air. These balloons resonate
    sounds like a megaphone, and some frog sounds can
    be heard from a mile away.
  • Launched by their long legs, many frogs can leap
    more than 20 times their body length.

  • Frog Eyes
  • Frogs have excellent night vision and are very
    sensitive to movement. The bulging eyes of most
    frogs allow them to see in front, to the sides,
    and partially behind them.

8
  • Where do Frogs Live
  • Like all amphibians, frogs are cold-blooded,
    meaning their body temperatures change with the
    temperature of their surroundings. When
    temperatures drop, some frogs dig burrows
    underground or in the mud at the bottom of ponds.
    They hibernate in these burrows until spring,
    completely still and scarcely breathing.
