Many people tend to get frogs and toads mixed up. They can't seem to tell the difference between the two. However alike they are, there are about the same number of differences.

Frogs can come in a variety of shapes, sizes, colours, and textures. Frogs have relatively smooth, moist skin and they spend most of their lives in or near the water. A frog's pupils can come in different shapes and sizes. Some frogs have triangular or even star-shaped pupils. Their eye colour also varies. Their eyes can be brown, green, silver, red, bronze or gold. Some frogs have sticky padding on their feet while others have webbed feet. Some can adjust their colour according to light, moisture, temperature or even mood. As you can see, not all frogs are similar.

Toads also vary in shape, size, and texture but not as much in colour. Toads are plump...
