Hi there,

Female frogs grow much larger than male frogs hence we can distinguish according to their sizes,Males have long forearms while females have shorter forearms than males.Nuptial Pads are found in females only..

Answer 2

Female American toads grow much larger than males, and if you find one that exceeds 3 1/2 inches in length, it is most likely female. During the breeding season, male American toadsdevelop enlarged forearms, which help them to clasp females for amplexus
