Spit. </p> <p>https://explorist.futurism.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2017/02/frog-spit.jpg</p> <p>Frogs are lightning fast at capturing prey and it’s all thanks to their unique spit when a frog lashes out, its spit transforms. Normally, frog spit is thick like honey but it attack mode, the spit liquefies.</p> <p>https://29inth3cxa642murjs2o961f-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/ickyfrog.jpg</p> <p>When the watery tongue makes contact with its prey that liquid covers the insect. And then quickly changes back to its sticky form – locking the prey in for the return trip. Notice how frogs close their eyes. That’s because the sticky spit makes swallowing difficult.</p> <p>https://www.gailshumway.com/images/Stripey%20Award%20Photo.jpg</p> <p>So, a frog will push the eyeballs back into its head. The force from the eyeballs re-liquefies the spit enable the frog to swallow its medal.</p> <p>Images <a href="https://www.sciencenews.org/sites/default/files/2017/01/main/articles/013117_SM_frog-tongue_main_free.jpg">1</a> <a href="https://explorist.futurism.com/wp-content/uploads/sites/3/2017/02/frog-spit.jpg">2</a> <a href="https://29inth3cxa642murjs2o961f-wpengine.netdna-ssl.com/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/ickyfrog.jpg">3</a> <a href="https://www.gailshumway.com/images/Stripey%20Award%20Photo.jpg">4</a></p></center> </html>
