Do frogs stick out there tounge to catch a fly?

Answer 1

The majority of frogs stick out their tongues to catch insects but not as far as one would expect. Some do not stick out their tongue at all. The Horned Frog from South America and the White's Tree Frog, Giant Tree Frog, from Australia, more or less just open their mouth and use the tongue only to move the food into position, whereas lots of water frogs, really do extend the tongue out an inch or so. No frog sticks out its tongue as far as any True Chameleons though. The Chameleon's tongue is as long as the length of the body and is rolled up, when not in use.
