There are over 5,000 species of known frogs, and scientists continue to discover new species. Frog species come in a variety of sizes and colors. They can be found in a variety of habitats on every continent except Antarctica. Frogs are amphibians, which are cold-blooded vertebrates, meaning they have backbones, that don’t have scales. Amphibians live both on land and in water. Other amphibians include salamander, newt, and caecilian. What’s the difference between frogs and toads? There isn’t a difference, the word “frog” includes both frogs and toads. While toads are frogs, toads tend to reference a frog that has particularly dry and warty skin. Toads also tend to have shorter legs and are more heavy-set. Frogs are more likely to live in or near water than toads.
