Unusual fact: why do frogs meow?

7 November 2023

You can imagine a cat or a parrot meowing, for example. But a meowing frog?

On the Internet you can easily come across frogs that meow. It turns out that this is a normal reaction. Frogs make a sound similar to meowing when they are in danger.

Interestingly, many species of frogs can make sounds similar to meowing. For example, in St. Petersburg we met an ordinary frog that also meowed.

Almost all types of frogs can meow

Biologist Pavel Glazkov said that with the help of this sound, frogs protect themselves, and at the same time warn their fellow tribesmen about danger.
