Frogs are amphibians and are found
throughout the world. Frogs lay their eggs and tadpoles are
born. Tadpoles transform into frogs when they turn into adults.
They grow legs.

Mythology of Frogs
Frogs have influenced human
culture for thousands of years. In mythology and literature they
have represented good, evil, fertility and transformation, as in
a frog turning into a prince. They have been used to predict
weather, cast spells and heal illness. Today their colourful
images are used in products and advertising worldwide. Real
frogs are disappearing from the wild, but fictional frogs have
never been more popular.
How man frogs have you seen in
t-shirts, coffee mugs, in toy stores and on television.

Frog Anti-Freeze
Some frogs live high on mountain
sloes or in the frigid north. During winter, a frog's body
temperature falls and its metabolism drops, the heat may been
stop beating. Many frogs dig deep onto mud or deep holes to
escape killing frost, but some practice controlled freezing.
They produce excess sugars. What
are Toads? Toads
are amphibians with poison glands and usually warty skin.
