Saturdays at 10 a.m.: Visitors are invited to the Fuqua Conservatory lobby at the Atlanta Botanical Garden to witness the feeding behavior of frogs. An amphibian specialist will provide insights and respond to inquiries regarding these fascinating creatures.
The public frog feedings offer an opportunity to observe one of the most intriguing aspects of amphibians – their feeding habits. Many frogs possess long, sticky tongues that extend rapidly to capture prey. Some species, such as Poison frogs, exhibit remarkable speed and precision, making their meals vanish almost instantaneously. Others, including the fringed leaf frog, engage in more theatrical feeding behaviors, using their hands to assist in consuming crickets.
