Amphibians: Class Amphibia

Amphibians (class Amphibia), such as frogs, toads, salamanders, newts, and gymnophiona, are cold-blooded animals that metamorphose from a juvenile, water-breathing form to an adult, air-breathing form. Typically, amphibians have four limbs. Unlike other land animals (amniotes), amphibians lay eggs in water, as their fish ancestors did. Amphibians are superficially similar to reptiles.The pages that are found on this site are a work in progress. The goal of Untamed Science is to find specialists in each animal taxa that can help us populate the pages.  Some funding is available and grants are continually being written.
