Preventing cats from hunting lizards, toads, and frogs can control the spread of the infection, but it is usually difficult due to wild nature of definitive host. Show moreView chapterExplore book Mucosal Immunity in Invertebrates Martin Bilej, in Mucosal Immunology (Fourth Edition), 2015 Innate...
We did not specifically account for range variation, assuming that under most conditions we were recording all wood frogs in the breeding area because of the high source levels of anuran calls (90–110 dB re:20 Pa at µ1 m; Bee, 2012) and relatively quiet background noise conditions (...
Plasma corticosterone from wood frogs ( ) was quantified from subarctic and temperate populations in response to handling stress. Additionally, temperate populations of and were sampled. Subarctic wood frogs had an acute increase in corticosterone after handling, but this increase did not significantly ...

Our work suggests that stickleback fish predation may not have a major impact on Wood Frog tadpole survival and growth in a subarctic wetland. Sticklebacks may still have an impact on earlier developmental stages of Wood Frogs. This work begins to fill an important gap in potential factors that...
Subarctic wood frogs had an acute increase in corticosterone after handling, but this increase did not significantly differ after ten minutes of confinement (up to 60 minutes). Neither energetic condition nor environmental variables strongly affected baseline corticosterone levels. Calling male wood frogs...
(Figure 1). Vertebrates also depend on the soil as a habitat, for example, moles, prairie dogs, meercats, wombats, small rodents, and some species of lizards, snakes, frogs, and even birds. Many aboveground invertebrates may be temporary inhabitants (such as nematode parasites of insects; ...
