While I may not be a frog‚ I can very much find myself relating to Kermit the Frog with his phrase‚ “It’s not easy being green.” One might laugh and say‚ “Alana!

Currently‚ frog populations around the world are declining. Due to the nature of their life cycles and physiology‚ frogs are very sensitive to environmental changes. Frogs are born in the water as tadpoles. Frogs move onto land for their adult lives. This makes them vulnerable to changes in aquatic habitat availability. This also makes them vulnerable to changes in terrestrial habitat availability. Their aquatic habitats are drying out‚ in areas that are becoming more prone to drought. Frogs are also

different than humans. First‚ the lungs in a frog have thin walls and are shaped like balloons. When frogs swim‚ they fill their lungs with air‚ which helps them stay buoyant while swimming. Frogs also do not have diaphragms compared to humans. They only breathe through their nose. They use muscles in their throat sacs to help move the air in‚ and then is pushed to the lungs. During this time‚ their mouth is closed. Body contractions allow the frogs to release carbon dioxide. When us humans breathe
