Saturdays at 10 a.m.: Visitors are invited to the Fuqua Conservatory lobby at the Atlanta Botanical Garden to observe the feeding behaviors of frogs in action. An amphibian specialist will provide insights and answer questions regarding these intriguing creatures.
The public frog feedings offer a unique opportunity to witness one of the most fascinating aspects of amphibian behavior. Frogs utilize long sticky tongues to capture their prey. Certain species, such as Poison frogs, exhibit remarkable speed and precision, making flies vanish in an instant. Others, including the fringed leaf frog, display more theatrical feeding techniques, often using their hands to assist in consuming crickets.
