In a field experiment, small larval ringed salamanders, Ambystoma annulatum, responded to chemical stimuli ('kairomones') from predatory newts, Notophthalmus viridescens, with an antipredator response (decreased activity). Laboratory-reared larvae decreased their activity following exposure to newt ...
A "tree frog" is any number of around 800 different species of frog, notable for their long, padded toes which help them climb trees. Because they have to climb trees and support themselves on branches, tree frogs tend to be smaller than other frog species....
Other than birds, normal threats and predators to frogs eggs incorporate dragonflies, newts, bouncing bugs and parasites. There are also many various bugs and water meddles with that will drink the eggs of frogs, yet these will as a general rule be probably the greatest clients. How do frogs...

Today amphibians are represented byfrogs and toads(order Anura), newts and salamanders (order Caudata), and caecilians (order Gymnophiona). Can amphibians breathe underwater? As larvae (tadpoles), all species of amphibian can breathe underwater. As they go through metamorphosis, though, some speci...
Handling the newts does no harm, but ingestion of even a minute fragment of skin is deadly. Are salamanders blind? Some species have only rudimentary (or even absent) eyes (blind salamanders). Others lack pigmentation, rendering them a pale yellowish or pinkish color (e.g., Eurycea rathbuni...
