Darwin frog(达尔文蛙) [ 2007-06-08 14:44 ]
达尔文蛙见于南美洲大部分地区,它们抚育幼蛙的方式与众不同。达尔文雌蛙产下卵后,雄蛙用舌头把卵卷起咽到声囊里,之后雄性达尔文蛙则继续进食。当蝌蚪长到没有尾巴时,雄蛙便张开嘴,让蝌蚪们跳出去。
Frog(达尔文蛙): The male Darwin
frog hatches his eggs in a pouch(文中指“蛙的声囊”) 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!
