In the animal kingdom, lots of animals among the same range of classification often look alike.
Here are some differences I think we should be able to boast of when we see familiar ones.

1.  A frog tends to hop higher and does so frequently.
---
A toad often crawl and do not hop as high as in frogs.

2.  A frog has long hind limbs usually as big as the body with webbed feet since they are often found in or close to water.
---
A toad has short hind limb without web-like structure between feet as they are usually found on land.

3.  A frog has a slender body with smooth skin.
---
A toad has a wide body with rough warty skin.
