Why do frogs close their eyes while eating? It’s not because they can’t look at their prey!
Actually, blinking helps the frog swallow its prey. Since frogs don’t have chewing teeth or swallowing muscles, to swallow their prey, they first push it to the back of their throat with their sticky tongue. When they blink, their eyes actually move downward and push the food into the stomach. Thanks to this task distribution, they can swallow even large prey in one gulp without chewing!
