In their Perspective, @MollyCWomack &co champion the organism-centred approach, where you 'fall in love with your organism & let the questions pour out' showing how connecting with an organism can provide inspiration

We'll keep this short and brief.

In her #JEB100 ECR Spotlight, @ChloeFouilloux tells us about her #research, where she discovered that #poisonfrog #tadpoles that develop in cloudy #water are less likely to evade a predator than tadpoles reared in clear water 🧵1/2

If you want to hear more about the nitty-gritty of putting g-strings on #poisonfrogs, check out the recent interview and the associated article by @SheenaGoodyear for @cbcasithappens. It was a really fun chat! cbc.ca/radio/asithapp…

Functional frog fashion. I had a lot of fun working on this story cbc.ca/radio/asithapp…

"#poisonfrogs may be only a few cm in size, but when they breed, they carry their tadpoles between 20 to 200 m across the rainforest to find them the perfect puddle to grow in.
Then they turn right around, and make their way 🏡 again." Nice story about 👉elifesciences.org/articles/80483

Biologist Andrius Pašukonis and colleagues wanted to study the navigational capabilities of poisonous frogs that are too small for most animal tracking devices. So he designed a Speedo-like harness. But his colleagues like the term 'G-string' better. cbc.ca/radio/asithapp…

@CNN you can follow @JenniFrog25, @dshakey18 and @frog_tracker for more frog and toad tracking reports.

Here is our latest research paper, where we use our frog trackers to understand the species and sex differences in frog spatial behavior: elifesciences.org/articles/80483

Our 'frog pants' on CNN! Although it's more of a 'panties' than 'pants.' Or, as my French colleagues call it: 'le string télémetrique.' Either way, it helps us track frogs in the rainforest! Thanks to @RNNouragues @CNRS_Nouragues @jocotoco_org @arcasapos for hosting our research!

These tiny toxic frogs are wearing 'pants.' Here's why

Look who's here! It's my dear friend Andrius Pašukonis
@frogtracker talking about the "fancy pants" he's been putting on tiny frogs to understand how they move around the rainforest 😊 Oh, and he's next in our @VetmeduniVienna #WilhelminembergSeminarSeries (info in comments)😉

WATCH: Researchers studying three species of poison frogs in South America came up with a unique solution to help track the frogs: tiny trackable radio-pants, which help study how male and female amphibians navigate their surroundings
