Frog/Legends

Frogs were green non-sentient amphibians, widely known as good jumpers. They lived in the watery environments of various planets, including Belsavis. Occasionally, entire swarms of frogs rained down from the skies of a planet. Various species, both sentient and non-sentient, were metaphorically referred to as "frogs."
==Biology and appearance==
Frogs were green-skinned, hopping animals with a short body, protruding eyes, four limbs and a long tongue that could flick in and out of their mouth quickly. Frogs lived in large groups gathered in watery areas such as pools and streams. On the world of Belsavis, a cold planet exposed to electrical storms, frogs were a common prey of the mooklas and pittins. Sometimes, entire swarms of frogs seemed to "rain" from a planet's atmosphere.
Metaphorically, several creatures were also called "frogs," including the gorgsJar Jar's Mistake or the worrts, both species from Tatooine. Some sentient amphibians like the Rybet were also said to be "froglike,"Jedi Search and the Serps from Serphidi were sometime called "frog-mouth."Star Wars (1977) 64 When the young Anakin Skywalker, a Human from Tatooine, first met the Gungan named Jar Jar Binks, he initially called him "the frog man" before finding out his identity.Star Wars Journal: Anakin Skywalker Nick Rostu once called his enemy Kar Vastor a "frogswallower"—among other colorful epithets.Shatterpoint
==Behind the scenes==
George Lucas refused to ever identify Yoda's species, but has jokingly said Yoda was a frog. In the documentary "From Puppets to Pixels," Lucas called Yoda "the illegitimate child of Kermit the Frog and Miss Piggy."DVD bonus disc of Star Wars: Episode II Attack of the Clones: "From Puppets to Pixels"
