Awesome Amphibians
Frogs , toads , newts (NOOTS), and salamanders are
pretty amazing . Did you know that frogs and toads use
their eyes to push down food when they swallow ? Did you
know that salamanders and newts can grow new limbs ?
There are also some frogs that can jump times their
body length . But , all of these animals have something in
common . They are all amphibians (am-FIH-bee-uhnz).
Amphibians comes from Greek words. Amphi means
two or both . Bios means life. Amphibians lead two
lives . Most spend part of their lives in water . But they also
spend time living on land.
Amphibians can be found all over the world . They
live in streams , rain forests , deserts , and everywhere in
between . There are more than 7,500 kinds of amphibians.
Many of them are in danger . But help is on the way .
Tadpoles grow
up to be frogs
that live on land .

The Chinese giant salamander is the
biggest amphibian in the world . It
can grow up to 1.8 meters (6 feet) long .

A Vanishing Act
Scientists are worried about amphibians . More than
kinds of frogs and salamanders have gone extinct in the
past years . That means they have all died . They no longer
exist . Nearly half of all amphibian species are at risk . Now ,
theres a race to save them .
Almost all amphibians have thin , moist (MOYST) skin .
They drink through their skin . Their skin also helps them
breathe . This makes them sensitive to their surroundings.
Even a slight rise in temperature can have a big effect on
amphibians .
Hot weather can lead to droughts (DROWTS). These are
long periods of no rain . Ponds and swamps dry up . Most
amphibians lay their eggs in water . When ponds dry up , they
have no place to go .
A frog lays
its eggs .
Frogs have tongues that attach to the fronts of their mouths not the backs - photo 9

More Troubles
Loss of habitat is another problem . A habitat is the home
of an animal . Humans are destroying the areas where
amphibians live . They are cutting down forests and draining
wetlands . They want to use the land to build houses , farms,
and shops . New buildings take the place of swamps and
