A frog lacks teeth for chewing and must swallow whole. Closing the eyes forces food into the stomach mechanically.
A frog closes its eyes while eating, not for mercy but for mechanics. When a frog catches prey, it shuts its eyes tight, not because it feels bad. Frogs do not have teeth to chew, so swallowing is a challenge. Here is the trick. When the frog closes its eyes, the eyeballs push inward, and that pressure helps force the prey down the throat and into the stomach. The eyes are not watching. They are working. Eating, powered by eyeballs. Like the video now, or blink before every meal forever.
