The difference of frogs with toads
Frogs and toads aka toad are amphibian animals that are best known to people in Indonesia. Children usually like frogs and frogs because of their cute shapes, often jumping up and down, never biting and not dangerous. Only adults who often feel disgust or fear that is unfounded against the frog.
Both kinds of animals are similar in shape. The frog is short, stocky or thin, with a slight hunchback, four legs and no tail (anura). Frogs are generally smooth, moist, with long hind legs. Conversely, frogs or rough-skinned carcasses with bumps to wrinkles, often dry, and the hind legs are often short, so most are less good at jumping away.
The life of frogs / toads

Frogs and frogs start their lives as eggs placed in their mother's water, in foam nests, or in other wet places. Several types of mountain frogs keep their eggs among the wet moss in the trees. While other types of forest frogs leave their eggs on the back of a moist male toad, which will always take care and carry them until they hatch even into small frogs. Once laying frogs can produce 5000-20000 eggs, depending on the quality of the parent and lasts three times a year .
Marriage / fertilization on frogs and frogs
Frog eggs and frogs hatch into tadpoles or tadpoles (tadpole), which are fat fish-like bodies, breathe with gills and live for a while in the water. Slowly you will grow your hind legs, which are followed by the growth of the front legs, the disappearance of the tail and the change of gills with the lungs. After its time, this tadpole will leap ashore as a frog or small frog.
Frogs and frogs mate at certain times, for example when the moon is dead or when it is raining. At that time the male frogs will sound to call the female, from the edge or middle of the water. Some types, such as moor frog (Fejervarya limnocharis) and sticky kintel aka belentung (Kaloula baleata), often form a 'singing group', where several male animals gather close together and sound muttering. A frog's loud noise is produced by a sound bag located around its neck, which will bulge when used.
Fertilization in frogs is done outside the body. The male frog will attach to the female's back and hug tightly the armpit of the female from behind. While swimming in the water, the hind feet of the male frog will massage the female toad's stomach and stimulate the release of eggs. At the same time the male frog will release its sperm into the water, so it can fertilize the eggs released by the female.
