New papers out on amphibian conservation

Two new papers out on amphibian conservation. The first, by doctoral students Chris Michaels and Rachael Antwis, examines the effect of calcium supplementation via insectivores. The second, by doctoral student Rachael Antwis and Dr Andrea Fidgett (Chester Zoo), examines effects of UV and calcium on fitness of red-eyed tree frogs (Agalychnis callidryas).

1 - Manipulation of the calcium content of insectivore diets through supplementary dusting

2 - Effects of different UV and calcium provisioning on health and fitness traits of red-eyed tree frogs (Agalychnis callidryas)
