Frog Biology and Ecology Concepts

The video explores the characteristics and habitats of frogs, highlighting their classification as vertebrates and amphibians. It discusses their anatomy, abilities, and how they adapt to various environments. The video also covers the life cycle of frogs, from eggs to adulthood, and the threats they face from predators and environmental changes. Conservation efforts are emphasized to protect these vital creatures.
