Explore the fascinating world of amphibians! These unique creatures are masters of both water and land. Here are some fun facts about our slippery friends:
- Amphibians are ectothermic, meaning they rely on external heat sources to regulate their body temperature.
- They go through a metamorphosis from a larval stage to an adult form, with frogs being one of the most famous examples.
- Amphibians have the ability to breathe both through their skin and lungs, thanks to their permeable skin.
- Many species of amphibians are currently endangered due to habitat loss, pollution, and climate change.
