Hop and Croak

Hop. Hop. Hop.


Ribbit. Croak.

They're pretty awesome little creatures, are they not? What are awesome? You may ask. If you do (ask, that is) then there is no hope for you! None whatsoever! By now it should be fairly obvious this blog is about frogs. If the hopping and croaking didn't tip you off, one would assume the picture of the frog would have. I may be random every so often--okay, maybe a bit more than that--but most people would see a frog and assume you're talking about frogs. Kinda sakes a little mense, doesn't it?

Anyway, where were we? Ah, yes. Awesome.


They're just frogs. You may say, once more. And you're completely, 100 percent... wrong! (Admit it, you totally thought I was going to agree with you there for a moment, didn't you? Ha! I tricked you!) Just look at that photo above; they're some of the coolest looking creatures on earth! There are so many different species of frogs that their looks can vary quite a bit, but almost all of them are just so... cute. I cannot believe I just said that, but... I really can't think of any better word to describe it.

They like to play hide-and-go-seek, too, apparently.


That picture did make me laugh. Frogs are pretty awesome, aren't they?

Hop. Hop. Croak. Hop...

If you ever get the chance to be around literally hundreds of frogs in a small area at the same time, you'll also notice just how loud they can be. A chorus of croaks. It's actually a pretty cool sound. Frogs are pretty cool. :)

They can jump pretty far, too. After some quick Googling I discovered that one of the longest frog jumps on record was 33 feet 5.5 inches. That's approximately 10 metres 20 centimetres! Woah! That is an incredible distance for such a tiny creature.

Apparently their eyes can have a range of different pupils, too. Round, vertical, horizontal and heart-shaped. Also some frogs have just two pupils, while others have three or four!

Now, come on, you have to admit it. Frogs are super-epically awesome little creatures. One of the few creatures I actually like! If you happen to have some time on your hands, be sure to Google frogs. There's tonnes of amazing (and actually interesting) information out there on them. You'd be surprised how much there is to know about them.
