Amphibians do hibernate in temperate or cold climates, but some that live in tropical climates do not. By the way, toads are frogs and newts are salamanders.

yes.

The most common amphibians are the frog, toad, salamander and newt.

Amphibians body temperature changes with its environment. In cold climates, amphibians hibernate during the winter.

When temperatures start to fall in autumn some frogs: the leopard frog, mink frog and green frog, head for the bottom of ponds and lakes. There they will sit, inactive, sometimes partially buried in the mud, breathing by taking oxygen in through their skin. They are dependent on water deep enough not to freeze to the bottom, and that will maintain at least a minimal concentration of oxygen. This places limits on where these kinds of frogs can live. When spring melts the ice and warms the water, these frogs resume their regular lifestyles.
