Frog

Frogs are amphibians in a order called Anura. Anura in ancient Greek means Tail-less.

Early Stages

A frog is born in the water in an egg. A few weeks later the egg hatches and a tadpole is emerged. The tadpole slowly grows bigger and it's tail starts shrinking. Soon a frog is made, this happens over and over again.

Environmental Factors

Due to the environments of the frogs, frogs can grow defects in their offspring. This is always bad. Sometimes the defects go into the offspring of the defected frog. Then a new cycle of defected frogs come into the environment. But herpetologist start investigating why is this happening. The cause is pesticide.
