What is a frog?

Simply put, frog is an amphibian in the order of Anura. This order includes amphibians that are colloqually referred to as toads, along with frogs; Among biologists, the terms "frog" and "toad" do not have solid differences. These adaptive small amphibians can be found almost everywhere on Earth, except for extremely cold areas such as Arctic and arid areas such as the Sahara desert. They are Tailless, an unusual condition for amphibians, and also have extremely muscular hind legs, adapted to jumping, rather than conventional walking. The frogs also have protruding eyes and web legs, allowing them to swim with ease and their skin is usually quite damp, it seems smooth or bumpy, depending on the type of frog. ” Sometimes the creatures in the family of Burfonidae are referred to as "True Ropuch" because they share a number of toads, while in the family there are a number of toads that are also technically considered to be frog.

whileThe frogs are known to be water, some species are equally comfortable on the ground, they just return to the water to behave. Some are also able to extend the period of hibernation that can be useful in heavy climate, and frogs also produce a number of vocalizations that have made these creatures quite famous. Radically differ in size, from monsters to leg (30 centimeters) to length to small frogs, which are less than half an inch (10 millimeters). Like other amphibians, frogs absorb most of their oxygen through their skin and hunt a range of insects, Worms and other small animals.

Some frogs have developed special adaptations, including the poison glands that are designed to discourage predators. The poisonous frogs are particularly common in the tropical rainforest and are known for their vibrant colors that are designed to serve as a silent warning. Several cultures have a tradition of using such frogs as a source of poison for hunting.

Because the frogs come from a diverse range of environments, it is good to read well on the type of frogs before you keep it as a pet, to ensure that it gets the habitat and the food it needs.

2008 was declared "a year of frogs" by many nature conservation organizations, and from a desire to raise awareness of the issues of frog protection. Since 1989, frogs around the world have been in decline and besides being a sad loss of biodiversity, it could also be a sign of serious environmental problems, because frogs are very vulnerable to things such as pollution and disruption of habitats.
