I've never really put my hands in their cages much and let them come out on their own accord. So, yes i let my hamsters choose how they want to come out.
Frogs typically have a row of tiny teeth on the top jaw only (I later found this out as I too thought they didn't have teeth, just hard gums).

I was weeding down the side of the shed a few years back. It was an old shed, rotting really bad, had some impressive mushrooms in there, perfect frog world. (I rescued 20+ frogs that where in there when we took the shed down. The frogs went to the river near where I live. But that's another story.) Anyways I was weeding down the side of the shed, can't see where I put my hands as (it's a dead area, nothing we plant there grows so it's left to go a bit wild. Mice, hedgehogs, frogs all love it.) So I went to pull some stuff out to tidy it a bit and something grabbed my finger. It hurt. Looked where my hand was and there was a frog, chilling. Probably scared the poor thing to death. Fair to say I now check before sticking my hand into a bunch of vegetation

Aww that's nice. Glad I'm not the only one.
