DescriptionHatch rates for red-eyed tree frog tadpoles depends on predation.png
Hatch rates for red-eyed tree frog tadpoles depends on predation by cat-eyed snakes (here: Leptodeira septentrionalis).
Experimental clutches were exposed to attack by snakes at age 6 days (top); control clutches were not attacked (bottom). Y-axis: proportion hatched out of total hatch for each clutch. Age (of eggs) is plotted from the night eggs were laid (oviposition). Experimental clutches hatched rapidly and simultaneously when attacked by snakes; if they were not attacked they took more time to develop and hatch at their own rates.
