Did you know that... FROGS drink through their skin? Instead of swallowing water with their mouths, frogs absorb moisture through their skin. Frogs can also take in oxygen through their skin, which helps them breathe better in the water. FROGS eat with their eyes closed? The eyes help the frog swallow by lowering into its head and pushing the food down its throat. FROGS can jump 20 times their own length? That's like a human jumping past four school buses in one leap! FROGS have sticky tongues? Frogs don't use their hands to catch food... they just stick out their tongues! Flies, mosquitoes, and other yummy bugs stick to the tip and get, pulled into the frog's mouth for dinner. SOME FROGS wear camouflage? Stripes and spots help frogs blend into their natural surroundings. Some frogs can even change color depending on their location or the weather. FROGS recycle? Frogs shed their skin about once a week. Then they eat the old skin to reuse the nutrients stored inside. FROGS can live to be 40 years old? Most frogs live from 4 to 15 years. A FROG wasn't always a frog? Every frog starts as a tiny egg that hatches into a tadpole. A tadpole has a round head and a tail and lives in the water like a fish. The tadpole eats a lot as its body changes and grows new parts. After three to four months, the tadpole has, four legs and no tail and can, live on land, it has become a frog!
