Home Page What we do Support us Wild Events ... Links London Wildlife Trust Registered charity no: © London Wildlife Trust Wildlife facts: frogs and toads The spread of London's urban environment has led to the destruction of over 90% of the City's natural ponds - sites vital to the survival of amphibians. The saviour of the common frog and toad has been the increase in the number of garden ponds, providing an artificial alternative to lost wildlife habitats. Sadly, toads have been less successful than frogs in adapting to garden ponds and their numbers have been particularly affected by the loss of natural wetland habitat. Spotting The Difference Common Frog Rana temporia The most obvious difference between these two amphibians is their skin. Frogs have moist smooth skin, greenish brown to yellow in colour, with a distinctive brown patch behind the eye. Toads have drier bumpier skin, which is often brownish. The slimy look of frogs (they don't feel slimy) is caused by a secretion from glands in the skin, which keeps it moist and supple. This is extremely important as frogs breath through their skin as well as through their lungs. Toads do this to a lesser extent.

48. Frogs And Toads The Topic frogs and toads. Harder frogs and toads comprise the order Anura, or Salientia, one of the three main groups of amphibians. http://www.42explore.com/frogs.htm

The Topic: Frogs and Toads Easier - A frog is a small tailless amphibian animal. They have smooth, moist skin, long hind legs, webbed feet, and bulging eyes. As amphibians, frogs live in water during the first part of their lives and in or near water as adults. Frogs are good swimmers and can make long jumps. Frogs spend more of their time in water than their close relative, toads. Very much like a frog, toads are also small tailless amphibians, but they have dry, rough skin. When grown, toads live mostly on land. Harder - Frogs and toads comprise the order Anura, or Salientia, one of the three main groups of amphibians. There are about 3,500 known species of frogs and 300 kinds of toads. They are found on every continent except Antarctica. Some types spend their entire life in or near water, but others live mainly on land and come to the water only to mate. A few other species never enter the water. Some frogs and toads are climbers that dwell in trees or burrowers that live underground. Generally, toads have a broader, flatter body and darker, drier, bumpy skin than most frogs. Toads also have shorter, less powerful back legs. Toads have a pair of parotoid glands located on the top of their heads. These glands produce a poison that can make people ill or cause eye irritation. Some frogs have poison glands that oozes onto their skin. If an enemy grabs the frog, the poison repels the predator.

Shortcuts: Lake Finder Rec. Compass Curr. Conditions Hunting Fishing State Parks Site Map Contact the DNR What's New? Newsroom ... Animals Toads and frogs often conjure up thoughts of wet places misty swamps and enchanted nights when mysterious calls rise from the water's edge. Although wetlands are crucial to their life cycle, these amphibians don't live exclusively in water. They often emerge from their aquatic homes to become land dwellers. Some hardy toads and frogs even spend their entire winter in the leaf litter of a forest floor or in a deep burrow below the frost line of an open grassland. Toads and frogs are collectively known as anuranstailless amphibians. The 14 species of toads and frogs found in Minnesota are grouped into three families: toads, treefrogs, and true frogs. All species within each family share similar features, but each individual species has its own unique breeding call, survival strategy, and environmental niche. Over thousands of years, Minnesota's toads and frogs have adapted to survive a wide range of conditions. By learning more about these amphibians, their habitats, and their survival methods, Minnesotans can better appreciate why we need to conserve the wetlands, grasslands, and forests where these fascinating animals live. Their presence is an indication that we are doing a good job of preserving wetland habitat and water quality. Conversely, when toads and frogs disappear, it could mean the ecosystems that sustain them are ailing. Back to top Main Categories:

EXPLORE ANIMALS ENVIRONMENT HISTORICAL BIRTHDAYS ... home Contents Physical Characteristics Behavior True Frogs Other Frogs and Toads ... Importance FROGS AND TOADS, common name for amphibians that make up the order Anura (or Salientia). The order is usually divided into 22 families, based primarily on skeleton and teeth. The differences between frogs and toads are mainly superficial, with the name frog usually applied to smooth-skinned, mostly aquatic species, and toad to the rough-skinned, mostly terrestrial species. Anurans are native to all parts of the world except Antarctica. The greatest variety is found in tropical areas where the differences between frogs and toads are even harder to determine, and some species qualify as either. Physical Characteristics top Anurans range in size from 12 mm (0.5 in) to nearly 300 mm (nearly 1 ft) in length. Typical adults are tailless, with long, powerful hind limbs that enable them to hop or leap, and webbed feet, helping them to swim, burrow, or glide through the air. Anurans also have flat heads, external eardrums, bulging eyes that can rotate in almost any direction, and pupils that close down to a slit when exposed to bright light. All anurans have skin glands that secrete irritating toxins for defense against predators. The internal systems of frogs and toads are typical of most amphibians. In fact, all amphibians were originally known as batrachians, from the Greek word for frog
