| Title | Tailed frog tadpoles differentially alter their feeding behavior in response to non-visual cues from four predators |
| Creator | Feminella, J. W. Hawkins, Charles P. |
| Description | Tadpoles of the tailed frog (Ascaphus truei) are common in riffles within many small, high-gradient streams of the Pacific Northwest (United States and southern Canada), where they typically graze periphyton from exposed cobbles. We conducted field observations and experiments in Clearwater Creek, southwestern Washington, to determine if tadpoles would reduce their feeding activity (i.e., emergence from crevices to graze periphyton) in the presence of non-visual cues released from each of... |
