Rhino Beetles

Rhino beetles are really cool. They eat rotten fruits. They are the strongest creatures in the world but aren't cute and furry they are black and have three horns on there head. They fight each other so if you have one as a pet (witch i do) you should have them in separate cages. They fight usually to get the female and the winner of the fight, mates with the female rhino beetle .They are intresting bugs. Or i wouldn't like them of course. My dad is going to put this information on wikipidia.com because they had no information on them. Well its not like we get credit for it, I just wanted to share with you.  Email me if you want to know more about rhino beetles! Oh and if you are still wondering why rhino beetles are the strongest,because elephants are huge and can carry a person on there back like nothing and ants can carry twice there weight but rhino beetle can lift 850 times there weight!!!!!!! that is why i like them so much there are the strongest creature in the planet!!!! I read that if a human can lift 850 times his own weight he can lift something that weighs 65 tons!!!! You and I should know that no human can

 lift 65 tons!!!

Frogs 

short small facts on frogs

The Egyptians used the outline (a character of the frogs profile) of the frog as the number 100,000. So you can ask someone what is frog plus frog and they wont know its 200,000. Bufo means toad n Roman and in English its buffoon so when you say buffoon your saying toadoon. Witch is very weird.

170 species in nine genera of poison frogs live in rain forests and humid forests. So when you visit a rain forest be very careful. Shovel nosed frogs actually burrow there heads in the ground. So they are hard to see.

The largest frog is the Goliath frog and it is at least 13 inches long and weighs up to 6 pounds!
The smallest frog is the cuban pygmy frog which is about 1/2 an inch. Did you know? A group of geese is a gaggle of geese a group of sea gulls is a flock of sea gulls and a group of wolfs is a pack of wolfs. A group of frogs is an army of frogs!

Life cycle 

from hhtp://www,kThemes/frogs/iddyhouse.com

Life Cycle of frogs

The eggs will hatch within 3-25 days depending on the species and water temperature. If it is warmer, it will be faster. Colder temperature will slow down the hatching. Eggs vary in size, color and shape with different species. The eggs are usually covered with s jellylike substance which acts as a protective coating. Even the jelly differs depending on species.

Young frogs are called tadpoles or polliwogs. They do not look like frogs yet. They look more like little fish. They have a tail and have external gills which they breath through. Tadpoles eat plants and decaying animal matter. However, some will egg other frog eggs and even tadpoles. As the tadpole develop, it will first grow the hind legs and then the front legs or arms. The tail slowly retracts and disappears and the frog hops up to the land as an adult.

Not all eggs or tadpoles will make it to the adult stage. There are many threats like ducks, fish, insects and other water creatures that will eat the eggs. When they are tadpoles, they still face danger like being eaten by larger water animals or die when the pond dries up. How fast tadpoles turn into an adult depend on the species and their natural surrounding. It might take a less than 2 weeks or even up to a few months.
