Frogs and toads are amphibians.
I really like amphibians. They’re sort of like butterflies because they change from one shape to another as they grow. It’s called metamorphosis (meta means “change”; morph means “shape”).
1. At first they’re like fish because they hatch from eggs that sit around in water.
2. Also like fish, they have gills and get their oxygen from the water as then they swim around.
3. Then their bodies change (they get legs and arms and lungs), come out of the water and breathe air to live.
But don’t be confused. Amphibians are not mammals or reptiles. They are amphibians (amphi means “on both sides”; bios means “life”). In my book I wrote:
Toads have shorter hind legs than frogs. (I do not have personal knowledge of this. I read about it. But if I ever get a toad and a frog together, I will measure and put the results on my website.)
Do you know anything about toad and frog leg lengths? Or do you know anything really interesting about frogs or toads? If so please comment below.
no
I hate K.F.C.
I think that KFC is feeding people false chicken.
K.F.C SUCKS!!!!!!!
Lots of kids like KFC. Maybe you don’t, and that’s your opinion…which is fine. But let’s not be mean.
Ehh…I read in a book that frogs are usually in water and that toads are usually on land is that true?
P.S. I have never seen a frog/frog leg in my life.
Frog legs taste like chicken..IMOTMI!!!
I think you are mostly correct: frogs = water…toads = land.
Then, you say you have never seen a frog or a frog leg, but your opinion is frog legs taste like chicken. How can you have that opinion if you’ve never seen one?
Actually, not all frogs or toads have the same leg lengths, so you cant get a good idea of how long a single leg of a frog or toad is.[
True. A scientist would have to examine lots of toads and frogs and look at averages, I think.
Once I went to some park with my girl scout troop and we saw a toad or a frog. I didn’t know what it was cuz I didn’t know the difference. And a lot of people I know say frog legs taste like chicken, do they really?
I really HAVE eaten frog legs…and IMO they do taste a lot like chicken.
What does IMO mean??? thanks (in advance)
IMO = In My Opinion
OH now i got it!!! THanks
What’s the difference in leg lengths when they’re cooked? How different do they taste? HA HA HA HA!!
I went to a Chinese restaurant once and they had frog’s legs, and I ate three. They’re good. But I have never eaten a toad leg.
toad’s legs are shorter than frog’s legs.
