TEAMS: Taxonomy / Animals - Amphibians -
After reviewing the characteristics of Chordates, and fish, we moved to learn about the class: Amphibia. These animals are cold blooded, oviparous, gills and lungs, no eggshells. They have the most remarkable metamorphosis of all animals, and include salamanders, newts, frogs and toads. We watched an episode of BBC’s ‘Life in Cold Blood’ which highlighted different species of amphibians including: the Panamanian golden frog (now extinct in the wild), the Japanese salamander (largest) , caecilian (legless salamander) , the amazon tree frogs, and the African bull frog. David Attenborough described the males often care for the young, and parental investment is not rare.
