Amphibians

Amphibians are a class of animals that live partly in water and partly on land. They have gills so they can breathe under water and also fins to help them swim. As they get older their bodies change, they grow legs and lungs which enable them to move about and live on the land. Read about amphibians at the Woodland Trust.
