What are the difference between a frog and human skin?

What are the difference between a frog and human skin?
My first immediate thought is toad's skin is more porous. Toads allow more water (as well as other fluids) in and out of the skin than human skin.





Some breeds of toad ooze bacteria and/or poison out of their skin.





And it's much thinner.





Just off the top of my head, hope it helped :)
Reply:one's on a frog and the other's on a human.
Reply:Humans are warm blooded mammals with body hair and sweat glands on their waterproof skin. Frogs are cold blooded amphibians that can absorb and excrete water (as well as breathe through) their skin. Many can excrete toxins through the skin, and these tend to be aposomatic in colouration. Some can even change the colour of the skin (like a chameleon) through hormonal regulation to aid camouflage and assist in thermoregulation (They are ectotherms).
Reply:One slimy one is not.
