The word ‘amphibian’ in itself gives us a lot of insight on the members of this category. It is derived from the Greek word ‘amphibios’ meaning living a dual life. Amphibians are vertebrates that can survive on both land and water. The common examples of this class include caecilians, frogs, toads and salamanders. Let’s get a closer look at these unique animals.
Following are the characteristics of Amphibians:
Cold-BloodedThey can live on both land and waterThey are carnivoresGive birth to young in eggsHave moist skin that contain mucus and poison glands
Like reptiles and birds amphibians are also cold-blooded or ectothermic animals. This means they rely on the surrounding environment to maintain their body temperature, unlike mammals which regulate their body temperature internally. These species are active in warm temperatures and get sluggish when it’s cold.
