“ Female bullfrogs have white throats. Bullfrogs are the largest species of frog in the U.S. They can grow up to 8 inches and weigh over 1 lb. Life Cycle: Eggs are laid as a jelly-like mass floating on the surface of the water. Around 12,000-20,000 eggs can be laid in each mass. They usually spend 2 winters as tadpoles and live around 8 years. ”

“ There is no technical difference between a pond and lake, but there are some rules of thumb. If sunlight can reach the bottom of an entire body of water, then it could be considered a pond. If some sections are too deep for sunlight to reach the bottom, then it could be considered a lake. ”

“ Frogs have large, bulging eyes that sit at the top of their skulls. The location of their eyes gives frogs a wide frame of vision, which is important because they cannot move their heads from side to side. ”
