Froggy facts

Frog life-cycle
Egg to tadpole Frogs are amphibians, which means that they require water for reproduction and the development of their eggs. Typically, frogs lay thousands of gelatinous eggs in pools of water, or ponds, rarely sea water where they will develop for around a week. Tadpole to frog When the eggs hatch, tadpoles emerge, which have external gills and a vertically flattened tail for swimming. As they develop, tadpoles grow lungs, legs and lose their tail. During the tadpole stage, they are very vulnerable to predation. Adult
Once metamorphosis is complete and the adult life stage has been reached, the fully grown frog may leave the water, but can also remain in the aquatic environment. The adult frog is typically carnivorous and will feed on insects, small mammals, birds and fish, depending on the species and size.
