City-based male frogs

What factors are you often attracted by others? Personality, expensive phone use, beauty outside or where he lives?

It is difficult to answer right? But if you ask an amphibian that is a frog , the answer will be: male frog living in the city .

According to BGR, in the study published in Science, the researchers tested the "charm" of male frogs living around Panama with female frogs, including male frogs living in the city. bustling while the rest live in smaller towns. After a while, they came to the conclusion that the male frogs living in the city had a better "flirtatious skill" than the male frogs living in the town or other less bustling places.

The choice of "mates" of animals may depend on the circumstances.

To draw this conclusion, the team used "mating calls" from male frogs in different areas. They are recorded, then played back to observe the frog's reaction, as well as the activities of bats that can threaten them.

More specifically, the frogs living in the city have more creative "invitations", from which female frogs are more attractive than the town frogs.

Another interesting point of the study is that when the male male frog was brought to the countryside, they now changed the call to match the "indigenous people" , but the frogs in the countryside when brought to the city again cannot adapt to more creative calls.

From this study, it can be concluded that the selection of "mates" of animals may depend on circumstances .
