Darwin frog(達爾文蛙) [ 2007-06-08 14:44 ]
達爾文蛙見于南美洲大部分地區,它們撫育幼蛙的方式與眾不同。達爾文雌蛙產下卵后,雄蛙用舌頭把卵卷起咽到聲囊里,之后雄性達爾文蛙則繼續進食。當蝌蚪長到沒有尾巴時,雄蛙便張開嘴,讓蝌蚪們跳出去。
Frog(達爾文蛙): The male Darwin
frog hatches his eggs in a pouch(文中指“蛙的聲囊”) in his mouth. He can eat and continue
about his business until his tadpoles (蝌蚪)lose their tails, become tiny frogs,
and jump out of his mouth!
