The most asked question in the amphibian world is this: “What is the difference between a frog and a toad?”. It’s a great question, too! One with a complicated answer.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
\n\n
Toads are a type of frog. Because toads are a type of frog, all toads are frogs. There are other types of frogs that are not toads. This means not all frogs are toads. <\/div>\n\n<\/div>\n\n\n\n
So, what are the differences?<\/strong> From a taxonomic standpoint, there aren’t many differences between frogs and toads.<\/strong> Furthermore, the main differences that stand out are not always unique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
One can say that most toads have short legs, dry skin, they venture far from water, and lay eggs in strings<\/strong>. While that’s mostly true, some toads have smooth, slimy skin: a characteristic usually attributed to frogs.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
This article will teach you the difference between frogs and toads, but in order to understand the answer, we first need to define what a frog is and what a toad is.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
