Abstract: | Leopard frogs are attracted to odors of 2 insects (crickets, mealworms) which they are commonly fed in the laboratory. Such odors also elicit feeding responses (extension of the tongue as usually used in prey capture) in the absence of visual cues. Both intact and blinded frogs responded to odor cues, but sightless frogs responded more readily than did normal animals. |
