Importance Of Pond Frogs

How can you possibly look into 2 eyes and not feel any remorse for destroying their habitat? They didn’t do anything to you but help you. Pond frogs are harmless creatures and yet they are still stepped on, tossed around, and not valued by humans. You see because humans decide not to have a value for something that means there is no value at all. Because humans are so anthropocentric they believe the world revolves around them, not literally but they think it does. They don’t care about the frog they just smashed under their huge foot. Want to know why? Because they don’t see the value of this critter. Pond frogs deserve to have a value, they matter and have a place in this world. First off, lets talk about the history of frogs.

All living organisms on this planet matter. If frogs go extinct it would throw the whole food chain into disruption. Insects would start eating all the plants. Humans wouldn’t be able to eat the plants; other animals wouldn’t be able to eat the plants. Then the humans would start to rely more on animals for food. We would burn right though the animals without having fruits and

They have learned to survive and evolve over intense global changes and geographical changes. Amnh.org says, “Like all amphibians, frogs are cold-blooded, meaning their body temperatures change with the temperature of their surroundings. When temperatures drop, some frogs dig burrows underground or in the mud at the bottom of ponds. They hibernate in these burrows until spring, completely still and scarcely breathing.” Without a survival mechanism these animals would be here and like said before it would take a toll. Being able to adapt and survive to is a big part to have an evolution of species. In the front of my pongs just a few feet from the pond we would see tiny holes that soon would be covered with dirt. We also emptied the pond during the winter so it wasn’t frozen throughout the winter. At the bottom we would always see little burrows into the mud. Its extraordinary that frogs learned to do this to stay alive during the cold
