What do you call frogs that have red eyes and live in trees? They are red-eyed tree frogs. These beautiful frogs live in warm and wet forests.
A mother frog lays (产) her eggs on a leaf above water. Soon baby frogs begin to move inside the eggs. Then the babies, called tadpoles, go out of the eggs and drop into water. They live and grow in the water. After about 75 days, the tadpoles will become frogs. The frogs come out of the water to live in trees.
The frogs are mostly bright green with a little yellow and blue. Their feet are orange or red. They are about as long as our nose. Tree frogs move around and eat at night. They eat flies and other small bugs.
Why do these frogs have big red eyes? Their eyes scare animals that try to eat them while they are sleeping. When the red-eyed tree frogs open their eyes, the animals run away. The bright colour surprises other animals.

India has a population of 1.27 billion. Its population is the second largest in the world. China has the largest population of over 1.36 billion. One out of six people on this planet live in India. Although, the crown (王冠) of the world’s most populous (人口稠密的) country is on China’s head for ten years. India will take the position by 2030.

India started taking measures to stop the growth rate quite early. India had the “National Family Planning Program” in 1952. It became the first country in the world to have a population policy. However, it failed to reach the final goal (目标).
