Saturday Critters – The frog or the Prince Charming?

It’s Saturday! Time for new Saturday Critters challenge. Today I want to show you a little frog I found in Chindia lakeFrogs are extraordinary animals. Despite their fragile appearance, they possesse a number of qualities that enable them to live in any climate. To succeed in overcoming winter, most frog species (amphibians) hibernate. When the temperature drops below a certain level, frogs stop feeding and begin to slow down their metabolism. Frogs do not bury themselves in the mud as they thought, but stay on the surface or just partially sunk. Lakes, deeper ponds, which are just freezing on the surface, are the ideal places for hibernation.

  1. When I lived in the former Canal Zone in Panama in the town called “La Boca” (The Mouth) which was near the Panama Canal entrance in the Pacific side, they were plenty of frogs in the backyard.
