DID YOU KNOW?

 
2008 is the Year of the Frog
. . .that a frog swallows with its eyeballs?  Frogs can sink their eyes down into their head.  When they do this their eyes push on the roof of their mouth, which is soft ~ not hard like ours, and their eyes push their food down their throat!!!
 
. . . frogs and toads shed their skin, just like snakes.  But you will never find their cast off skin because they EAT IT!!
