Did this species undergo metamorphosis?[edit]

Was there a "tadpole" phase as in frogs? I realize this may not be known unless its classification implies this.

If there was a "tadpole" do we know its characteristics? (Interesting if it was a 9 meter tadpole.)--Jrm2007 (talk) 18:18, 25 July 2014 (UTC)[reply]

Yes. Prionosuchus tadpoles were having the same stages as frogs. They aren't 9 meter tall tadpoles but were 1 inch tadpoles. Vishal Kandasamy (talk) 08:56, 12 June 2021 (UTC)[reply]
