Why Do Frogs Croak?

Frogs make croaking sounds to say, 'Hey, I'm here!', like when you call out to a friend in the park. They use their larynx, which is like a special voice box, and push air through it to make noise. Males croak more often because they want females to notice them. It's like singing at a party!
