Why do frogs ducks and mice produce a large number of offspring?

[Edit]

Ducks, frogs, and mice produce a large number of offspring because they are all prey animals. They need to produce more, because more of them get eaten. So having more offspring means more will be able to survive. That's how they keep up their population in the world.
