They are clearly \u003ci\u003etotally\u003c\/i\u003e different from each other. So when an unlucky fly mistakes Frog and Toad for two \u003ci\u003efrogs\u003c\/i\u003e, the two are determined to set the record straight. After all, Toad is obviously stronger, while Frog is unmistakably the superior hopper . . . and before long, things start to get a bit heated among the amphibian population in the swamp. But when the two rivals have a close encounter with a snappy alligator, both Frog and Toad see the benefit of joining forces. Perhaps they’re not \u003ci\u003eso \u003c\/i\u003edifferent after all?
