University of Chicago Press Journals
Recent Studies show that tree frogs cause for climbing trees on cold nights is to retrieve dew that condenses on the leaves, by standing still the dew condenses on the frog, the frog then in the mourning when the sun warms it up crawls back to its den where the dew is absorbed by its skin. Studies show that the tree frog collects almost 1present of its body weight in water. This is enough for the tree frog to survive the dry season.
I thought this article was really interesting. Learning about animal survival instincts helped me make a connection with this article. I didn't know that tree frogs were that smart.
