Surviving the Heat
While one might not associate frogs with desert climates, several species have adapted to survive in these harsh environments. These resilient amphibians have developed remarkable adaptations that enable them to thrive where few can.
Discover more about the water storage and nocturnal lifestyle adaptations.
Water Storage Techniques
Frogs, like the desert rain frog, store water in their bodies, using their skin efficiently to minimize water loss. Learn more about how they optimize water retention.
Nocturnal Lifestyles
To avoid the scorching sun, many desert frogs have become nocturnal, staying active during the cooler nights. This behavioral adaptation helps reduce dehydration and maintain energy.
