Frog's eat insects and minnows. Most frogs have a sticky tongue. To catch an insect, the frog flips out its tongue rapidly, get the insect and retracts its tongue. Frogs only have teeth in their upper jaw to help bite into their attackers so they have to eat food without chewing it. So they can't eat anything as big as squirel or human. So don't be afraid of them.

A frogs enemy will eat them. Fish, racoons, turtles, snakes and even people like the taste of frogs. So these critters really have to watch their step. Different frogs have different ways to protect themselves. Some have poison skin. Some are brightly colored to protect themselves. Completely red or yellow frogs are poisonous and don't want you to touch them.

The American Native Indians used frog poison for their arrows. But most types of frogs use their color as camouflage to help hide from their enemies. The Tree-frog does this pretty well. Frogs also have buldging eyes. This is to enable them to have a panoramic view and avoid the enemy. Frogs seem to be ready for war, don't they?
