Saturdays at 10 a.m.: The Fuqua Conservatory lobby at the Atlanta Botanical Garden will host public frog feedings, where attendees can observe frogs as they engage in feeding behaviors. An amphibian specialist will be present to share informative facts and address any inquiries regarding these intriguing creatures.
This event showcases one of the most captivating aspects of amphibians – their feeding habits. Most frogs utilize long, sticky tongues that quickly extend to capture prey. Certain species, such as Poison frogs, exhibit remarkable speed and precision, making it appear as though flies vanish in an instant. Conversely, others, like the fringed leaf frog, display a more theatrical style of feeding, using their hands to stuff crickets into their mouths.
