A very cold frog

Here's a frog sitting in an ice bath on top of a snow-covered lake. The frog has emerged from under the ice where it spent the winter and it now trying got move around and find a mate. Being cold blooded, the frog's movement and metabolism speed are determined by the temperature of it's environment: very cold and slow when on ice.

About This Project

Vernal Pools are temporary wetlands that fill annually and support a unique set of species. The goal of our study in Massachusetts is to better understand how water level in vernal pools fluctuates throughout the year. Studies like ours are critical to protecting species that rely on vernal pools.
