    "In the palmate newt, metamorphosis is optional: depending on conditions, an individual may remain in a paedomorphic state or undergo metamorphosis... The transformation involves both a costly bodily reorganization and a reduction in energy intake... Females begin to lose weight earlier, lose more weight, complete metamorphosis later... males are more frequently observed undergoing metamorphosis... it costs them proportionally less."

    Taking the picture was not easy in the dark environment. But with some tries and luck we found the right depth of field.

    Their lower jaw bones flare apart to accommodate prey much larger than their own heads. This lesson explains the extreme feeding strategies and toxin resistance that help these #animals thrive in almost any #environment.

  24. Last year I thought I saw a newt larvae at the brownfield site near where I live but I wasn’t confident in my ID but tonight we finally saw some adults in the same location! They haven’t been recorded here before so of course I’ll submit my record.

  29. You would wish that it wouldn't be necessary, but alas it seems it is. Thanks to @thewildlifetrusts for producing a report on the scale of impact of bats & newts on planning applications. Nature isn't the problem. wildlifetrusts.org/sites/defau #nature #bats #newts #planning
