Yippy Frogs! Frogs are known as amphibians. They spend approximately half their lives in water and the other half in water. The word amphibian comes from 2 Greek words, "amphi" which means "both" and "bios" which means "life". Frogs are cold blooded and their skin can easily absorb water into their body so they do not have to drink water through their mouthes. Frogs rear legs are used to help them leap far ahead. They are great jumpers. The front legs or arms are short and are usually used to help the frog eat it's Read More Go to Site ADW: Osteopilus septentrionalis: Information Votes:0 Overview News Technology Conditions of Use Privacy Policy Partners & Contributors Awards & Recognition ADW Staff Contact Us Spinning Skulls About Mammals Frog Calls Resources for College Instructors Resources for K-12 Instructors Contribute to ADW What's in a Scientific Name?

The upper hemisphere of the egg — the animal pole — is dark. The lower hemisphere — the vegetal pole — is light. When deposited in the water and ready for fertilization, the haploid egg is at metaphase of meiosis II Fertilization Entrance of the sperm initiates a sequence of events: Meiosis II is completed.

They seem to adapt to their surroundings. The particular "Golden" color comes from yellowish accents along the sides of their bodies...surprisingly, the "golden" color really looks like 14k Gold!! Yet, this color fades and shines depending upon tank temp and mood. If they are agitated, the color is washed out. If the tank is too cold, they turn very dark. These frogs can grow quickly! In the first month, the Bell Frog can double in size. Habitat: Golden Bell's enjoy light and heat - if you want to keep them, spray their habitat with distilled water once a day and keep the temp around 76 degrees F. Read more information on this subject in the Housing Your Pet Frog section. Read More Go to Site GreenTreeFro Votes:0 Green Tree Frog (Hyla cinerea) Green Tree Frog- This frog is a light to dark green with a well-defined, sharp-edged white or yellow stripe on the side. They are found in the Southeastern United States. Green tree frogs are usually 1 1/4-2 1/4 inches in length. Males are usually smaller than the females and have a darker, dirty-yellow throat. Females are larger and have a white throat. Males croak and it sound like a duck quacking. They blow a bubble under their chin. They get their name due to the primary coloration on their back. Unhappy, cold, or sick frogs will loose the green coloration and begin to turn brown or yellow. Cage setup- Since your frog is used to a semi-tropical climate it will need a semi-tropical setup called a vivarium.

In a few weeks, David Hoope, a herpetolotgist, will awaken three pairs of deformed northern leopard frogs from their hibernation in the lab and attempt to breed them. Hoope wants to find out whether their limb deformities -- missing feet and club feet -- will be passed on to their off-spring in a controlled environment. Hoppe hopes his experiment will shed light on a biological mystery. Since the discovery of deformed frogs in Minnesota and Wisconsin gained widespread media att Read More Go to Site Northern Leopard Frog Votes:0 Northern Leopard Frog Northern Leopard Frogs, also called meadow or grass frogs, are bright grass-green with oval black spots. They spend a lot of time foraging in grassy places during the summer. You may see them in old fields, meadows, grassy-sedge woods roads and grassy roadside ditches. Juveniles are often seen resting on sphagnum moss at the edge of roadside ponds. Egg Mass Frog crossing road Leopard Frogs emerge from underwater hibernation in spring. From mid-April to mid-May the males rest, with limbs spread out, on the surface in the shallows of ponds and vegetated coves of lakes. Their breeding call is a long rattling snore followed by several rapid grunts. Females lay about 3000 eggs in a loose oval mass in shallow water. Newly hatched tadpoles stay in a close group for some time Read More Go to Site Northern Leopard Frog [Rana pipiens] Votes:0 The Northern Leopard Frog [Rana pipiens: also called the Meadow or Grass Frog] Until recently, one of the most common sounds in the national parks of western Canada was the low, throaty grunt of the northern leopard frog .

The body is brilliant green with pale blue vertical bars on its side. Like most amphibians, it is dependent on water for most of its life. In the forests of Belize, it minimizes water loss by resting underneath leaves and tucking its limbs up close to its body. Breeding occurs from October to March, usually near temporary or permanent ponds. The frogs breed while in an embrace called amplexus, the male mounted and locked onto the back of the female. The male then fertilizes the 30-50 pale eggs as the female lays them on a leave over standing water.
