Saturdays at 10 a.m.: Visitors are invited to the Fuqua Conservatory lobby at the Atlanta Botanical Garden to witness the frogs in action during feeding time. An amphibian specialist will present fascinating facts and respond to inquiries regarding these intriguing creatures.
Public frog feedings provide an opportunity to observe remarkable feeding behaviors among amphibians. Many frogs possess long, sticky tongues that extend rapidly to capture prey. Some species, such as Poison frogs, exhibit astonishing speed and precision, making it appear as though flies vanish in an instant. Conversely, the fringed leaf frog displays more theatrical feeding techniques, using its hands to stuff crickets into its mouth.
