Ecology & Behaviour 3

I call them little pigs. This is because usally I find them in muddy clouded shallow pudles. The frog thrives in lowlands. Specifiaclly in flooded recuringly places, marshes and permanently wet soil. When threatened ,these animals display something called bombina-reflex where they show the red/yellow spots on their legs by bending backwards, thua exposing them to potential preadtors.

Identifikace (CZ) 3

Kuňky se dají rozlišit podle zvuku (kdy obecná dělá pouze takové "U") nebo podle břišní strany těla. Kdy kuňka obecná má skvrny na břiše a nohou, které se vzájemně nespojují zatímco kuňka žlutobřichá má skvrny jednolité přes břicho i nohy.
