do frogs eat? Frogs are very common amphibians in our country. They can often be seen beside rivers and ponds. Frogs have a mixed diet. They can eat all kinds of insects and some plants. However, their main food is insects, and they eat less plants. Many of the insects eaten by frogs are harmful to crops, and food harmful to rice, corn, cotton and other crops will become frog food. Moreover, frogs can eat a large number of pests every day. In addition to insects, frogs sometimes eat small fish and shrimps, which are food for ornamental fish and may be eaten by frogs in captivity.
But when frogs are still young, their diet is completely different. Because tadpoles live in water, and tadpoles are relatively small animals, the food of tadpoles at this time is some plant particles in the water, or some plankton. The same is true when tadpoles are bred artificially, and some plankton can be cultivated for them to eat.
can frogs live without eating? Frogs have a mixed diet and can eat a lot of food. Generally speaking, frogs can eat dozens of insects every day, and some larger frogs eat more. Nevertheless, the metabolism of frogs is not particularly fast, as is the case with all frogs. How long they can live without eating depends on the breed. Some species of frogs themselves can go a long time without eating, such as bullfrogs. However, some frogs can insist on not eating for a relatively short period of time, can persist for two or three weeks, generally speaking, at least a week.
In addition, when winter comes, frogs will go into hibernation, when they can not eat for a longer time. The whole winter will last for several months, and the frog will be in the cave at this time, will not eat, the frog will be able to persist in two or three months without eating, until the next spring to come out to find something to eat.
