Effects of light and group size on the activity of wood frog tadpoles (<i>Rana sylvatica</i>) and their response to a shadow stimulus
Tadpoles are known to behaviorally respond to cues from aquatic predators. However, there are several additional factors that might affect tadpole behavior. We examined the influence of light conditions and group size on the activity of wood frog (Rana sylvatica) tadpoles and their response to a sim...
