Why do frogs croak?

It's for singing. There is a bulging thing on the frog's mouth that can make a sound. It likes to sing loudly on rainy days in summer. In hot summer, frogs usually hide in the grass and occasionally make short calls.

If there is a cry, the people next to them will scream a few times, as if singing to each other. Frogs are happiest after the heavy rain. At this time, there will be dozens or even hundreds of frogs croaking endlessly, and the sound can be heard for miles away. ?
