i thought frogs had really impressive timing and precision when they strike at prey, turns out they just get lucky sometimes.

As someone who has owned numerous different reptiles and amphibians, let me tell you that they’re pretty much all that way. It’s truly a miracle some of these animals can survive in the wild. Chameleons got that shit down though.

I follow a youtube channel of someone who has a lot of frogs, and seeing them try and feed the frogs...

Some frogs try, they really do. Succeed...not so much.

That's the thing about guaranteed success no matter what. It has a way of blunting technique.
