Recently metamorphosed individuals have also been seen enter to shallow water to capture mosquito wrigglers. [33] The relative proportion that various prey make up in the frog's diet is not known. [34] In observed studies of captive frogs, they eat less in cooler periods of the year, and frogs in the wild ate less during breeding periods. [34]
A few amphibians, such as some members of the frog family Brevicipitidae, undergo direct development – i.e., they do not undergo a free-living larval stage as tadpoles – instead emerging from eggs as fully formed "froglet" miniatures of the adult morphology. Some other species hatch into tadpoles underneath the skin of the female adult or ...

They lack beak-like mandibles and the specialized labial tooth generally associated with most tadpoles. The newly transformed toads range from 7–12 mm (0.3-0.5 in) in body length. They are found to share the same habitat as adults, and the older stages of the tadpoles are also toxic to many predators. The males reach sexual maturity in a year ...
“The first video got 18 million views from this dome right here,” said Martinez, during a tour of that site with the Miami Herald. “People were saying I wasn’t in the Everglades.
Females usually lay their eggs in shallow, calm water that has little action around it. If they survive, embryos will hatch into tadpoles within one to three weeks. The tadpoles feed on periphyton, filamentous algae, diatoms, and pollen in or on the surface of the water. They feed using suction, and a beak-like structure that helps scrape ...
