Kyle has been working on a project about frogs. While helping him with his research I came across this quiz. I figured since we'd all seen which kind of car we are, which kind of pizza, and which celebrities we most look like, we might as well know what kind of frog we are too! Have fun and let me know your results!!
Believed to have been brought to America as stow-aways on banana boats, Cuban Tree Frogs are the largest tree frogs in North America. They are notorious for cannibalism...if there are other species of frogs in the tank, or even specimens of the same species, they have been known to feast on their neighbors!

Ok. I'm a Budgett"s frog:
So ugly, it's cute! Budgett's Frogs, named after the explorer who discovered them, are large carnivorous South American frogs. They can grow to be 5 and a a half inches in size, but since they aren't very active they can be kept in a small 10 gallon aquarium. Their tank should be kept around 86*F and they cannot be housed with other animals because they will try to eat anything that moves!
I especially like the "so ugly, it's cute" part!
i thought you wrote the "so ugly, it's cute"- that's great! I'm just glad that i'm not the only carnivorous frog! thanks for playing!
I am a green tree frog...These little frogs are grass-green colored, usually with a creamy colored line running from the jaw along the flanks. Males make a really loud noise thats a bit like quacking, which is sometimes known as a "rain call" because they tend to make a lot of noise before rains, but which can also be stimulated by external noises. They eat an assortment of bugs including crickets, moths, and flies
i don't really know if there is a discription of me in there... maybe it is telling me i am loud and a boy?
well, we know you're not...
a boy! :)
I am a White's Tree Frog. Also known as the Smiling Tree Frog or Dumpy Tree Frog due to the nature of its appearance, this frog is a very hardy creature and a favorite pet of amateur frog owners, although some pet owners complain that they are not active enough. These frogs love to eat, which can make them quite fat, hence their "dumpy" appearance. Unlike many frogs, these frogs do well with other frogs of their species and are fairly friendly. They like a warm and moderately humid habitat and eat larger insects like crickets, cockroaches, locusts, moths and beetles.
Thanks for that uplifting experience - apparently I should now go eat something.
I am a Pixie Frog.
zI'm a Kissing frog......I like to kiss the cheeks of little girls and handsome boys!!!!!
Im a PacMan frog.
Argentinian Horned frogs seem to have been designed for the sole purpose of eating as much as possible. They appear to consist of two main parts: a mouth and a stomach. This is probably where they got the nickname "PacMan". Their needs are fairly simple, a warm habitat in a simple plastic box or aquarium with some shallow water and a few rocks so that they can laze around all day suits them just fine. They don't mix well with other frogs, even in their own species, as they are just as likely to eat them.
You are a Firebellied Toad
These colorful toads are very active and fun for beginner pet owners. They enjoy spending their day swimming and singing with other frogs of their species and become more active when not alone. Weird fact: Firebellied toads cannot extend their tongues like other toads or frogs. To feed, they must leap forward and catch their prey with their mouths. After they have grabbed a cricket or worm with their mouth, they usually use their fore-arms to help stuff food the rest of the way in. Then they squish their eyeballs down in their heads to push the food into their throat.
"I'm a Common Toad!" The largest toad found commonly in Europe, the species can grow up to 20cm in length with a rotund body. Active mostly at night, this toad will walk about slowly, sometimes making short jumps, in search of insects, worms and other invertebrates. This makes it of great help to farmers. At the end of autumn it buries itself in the soil where it remains until good weather arrives again.
Hmmm, that's true about the hiding until good weather comes again...
how interesting that we are all cheese pizzas but we are not a common frog!
common pizzas, uncommon frogs.. hmmm
