The Difference in Frogs Humans are all under the same general specification of Homo sapiens, but they are all different from height all the way to thoughts.

They live in completely separate habitats and in different continents. They do not have the same feeding habits or mating rituals. They show so much contrast between each other. It almost hard to think of them both as
