Frogs Fun Facts:

- Their call is called a croak. Croaking is used by male frogs as a way to attract females
- Frogs don’t drink water with their mouths; they “drink” by absorbing water through their skin
- They need to live near water as their skin must constantly be moist. If it dries out the frog dies
- They catch their pray with their tongue
- Their eyeballs assist them in swallowing food – they push the food down their throat by pushing down the eyeballs
- Their vision field is almost 360° so they can see all that is around them all the time!
