Tadpole to frog: Time-lapse video of metamorphosis

Let’s talk about tadpoles! While most tadpoles take 6-12 weeks to change from tadpole to frog, bullfrog tadpoles like the one in the video can take up to two years to fully change into frogs. As long as they have enough food they will chill for at least a year as a tadpole then start metamorphosis the second year. They develop their back legs first (like this guy!) and then their front legs. Froglets then slowly absorb their tail as their gills disappear and lungs develop. Bullfrogs are sure cut
