The feeding habits of toads and
frogs are closely related to their
method of spending the winter.
During the summer food is stored
in the body in the form of fat, in
the liver in the form Of glycogen. a
form of sugar, and in the muscles.
In the fall, on the approach of cold
weather, they bury themselves below
the frost line and slowly use their
stored-up food.
The temperature OF the body Is only
slightly above the surrounding earth,
and they may be partially frozen even
and revive. During Information they
cease to breathe by using the lungs
and breathe through the skin; the
beating of the heart and the circular

amount of food and oxygen is suffi-
