Why do frogs cover the roads after a rain?

2.82K views

Every time it rains, frogs cover the road. It’s not just one or two but a lot of them. I’m not sure if it’s just where I live or if it’s common in other places as well.

Frogs are amphibians, which means their skin isn’t a watertight fortress like yours and they’re prone to drying out if they get caught out in the sun for long periods of time.

So like worms, they’re taking advantage of the wet conditions to cover some distance and get past areas they normally wouldn’t be able to cross (like hot pavement) in sunny weather.
