Frogs and Toads: What's the Difference?

There are more differences between frogs and toads than you think! Stick around to the end for the most bloopers we've ever had in a video :P

I just read an article today about some researchers who accidentally discovered that a species of frog is using elephant footprints as breeding puddles in the forests of Myanmar. The footprints can last up to a year and collect rainwater which the frogs use to lay eggs in predator-free puddles. They can also use these trackways to get from one wet area to another, thus spreading their population and gene pool. Of course with elephants being endangered it will affect the frogs' reproduction.

[@SlysGames]

Not to understate Emily's ability with animals but based on my experience with Gray tree frogs they tend to be fairly docile. If you pick them up and hold them gently they will often settle down and relax in your hands. Once I found a gravid female in my pool. When I picked her up she hugged onto my thumb and nuzzled my hand bettwen my thumb and finger. If I hadn't put her into a tree so i could work on the pool I honestly think she might have clung to my thumb for nearly an hour. The next day I had to save her eggs from the pool. Now her babies are four weeks old and all but two have left the water. Here's to hoping they've got their mother's personality.

[@ViolentNightshade]

There are roads/highways here in Canada (mostly in national parks) that are designed to help animals safely travel across without risk of being hit, the roads have tall fences along the sides and the grassy bridges over the roads for safe crossing, there’s even a few places with tunnels under the roads specifically for smaller animals like amphibians to cross safely as well, there’s still many places without these but it’s nice that some areas are starting to implement them. Obviously it doesn’t stop every animal from being hit but it does help many of them.

[@brigidtheirish]

Round here, tunnels under roads that animals can use to get to the other side are called culverts.

I see the effects of habitat loss for my local amphibians. Recently a new neighborhood was constructed next to mine in a wetland area near a large creek system, and the two Eastern American Toads that I just got are both rescues and were likely headed towards my neighbors pool, which would have poisoned them because of the chlorine. They now have a temporary enclosure while I build a new/bigger one and a stable diet, so they are doing much better.

And sometimes you don't need to buy them. Or even feed them unless you feel like it. There have been generations upon generations of toads living in the window well of my family's farm. It's pretty easy to catch them and play (gently) with them before putting them back. My niece and her friends *love* the toads. I know what she said about window wells being dangerous, but somehow this window well just makes the perfect little habitat for them.

I found a gray tree frog that loved to hang out in my flower pot in my childhood home’s back deck. I named the frog delphinium, which was the flower I always found it hanging out on. It made me happy to see it hanging out, and influenced gray tree frogs to be my favorite amphibian.

[@roninjolin7687]

I thought u sed "gay tree frog"

[@ToraOkami303]

Personally I think the ramp in the window well is the better idea because unfortunately in some areas Window Wells serve as a Fire Escape from the basement if you have bedrooms down there. I imagine putting a lid over them would go against the fire code.

[@stopglobalswarming]

You can push them open without much force

[@3llevate]

The lid just rests there.. it's not a sealed lid or anything.. at most it'll have hinges on one side to open like a trap door.. but not everyone can afford one so you can just grab a plexi or a clear container lid, anything.. or make that little ramp :)

[@annasstorybox7906]

I guess it will be fine if it's not to heavy to be pushed open... I personally wouldn't use a solid lid I'd rather use a frame with some fine mesh to allow ventilation. We have window wells on our house (they're small basement windows high up on the wall only meant to let in some light and allow letting in fresh air). My parents covered them with mesh as we had mice in them and once even a bunny (it survived and was lifted out and it ran away). The window wells are only the size of a large door mat since the windows themselves are so small they obviously don't serve as an escape and since they are smooth walled plastic contraptions they already come with a lattice cover but the gap between the struds were big enough for young mice to squeeze through and there was a gab between the lattice and the wall. I guess that's were the young rabbit fell in... The mesh works like a charm and we never had any animals trapped in there.

Dark Thunder you could use biofertilizer I thought, or any kind of it..

[@annikaheydl7342]

Natural compost is better for your plants and wildlife

[@kiroropupper3914]

Fertilizer isn't innately horrible. Any compound meant to change the levels of phosphorus, nitrogen, and potassium in the soil is a fertilizer. The problem is really the other chemical boosters for plant growth. You can use old coffee grounds, egg shells, or manures fairly safely.

[@teresaellis7062]

Also to avoid needing as much fertilizer recycle your grass clippings: cut the grass, but don't collect the clippings. They will break down to return to the soil. You might have to make adjustments to your lawnmower to do it. It is called mulching with your lawnmower.

[@skullfullofbooks7398]

Toads at my barn have been kind of confused since the neighbors harvested the trees on their property. We have a wet area around the water spicket in one barn so they've decided that it is a great place to be. They might even be reproducing around it because I see tons of tiny babies moving around. I've been wondering if I was right thinking they're toads but they definitely look like the toads. Tiny toads are cuties!
