The largest fish to walk on land, the voracious northern snakehead, will flee water that is too acidic, salty or high in carbon dioxide—important information for future management of this invasive species. Snakeheads eat native species offish, frogs and crayfish, destroying the food web in some...
Captive management of anurans often involves housing multiple frogs or toads in one enclosure, making social housing an important area of future research. Throat expansion rates were also lower when toads were on the enriched side of the enclosure which suggests low arousal and may have been ...
