Why do opossum toads put their eggs on their backs?

In order to protect the eggs and improve the chances of survival of the offspring.

This allows for better incubation and fertilization.

This protects young children from harm.

Because they feel safer that way.

He was afraid that others would eat his eggs.

It may be that you need to protect your child.

That's where his name comes from.

The male squeezes the female's spawning belt on the female's back, squeezes the eggs out and expells them.

The female toad's back** is softened like a sponge, and the inner wall of the cloaca is turned outward, forming a tubular spawning band, which bends on the back.

Opossum toads are a variety of primitive frog species found in South America and Africa. Completely aquatic. The back is flat and the body is streamlined.

The hind webs are well developed. ** is smooth. There is a lateral line system.

Small head, no tongue. The eyelids cannot move freely. In the production process of producing eggs, ** soft as a sponge, the female toad forms an oviposition belt on the surface of the back, bends the back and the male presses on the back of the female, squeezes out the egg shell, and presses into the small pieces of the sponge ** The nest is covered with mucus in the spawning belt.

The eggs develop in the ** nest on the back of the female, and they become young little beings. Hence the name of this "negative toad".

It is the female who lays the eggs and the male who climbs on the back. Toad eggs and fertilization methods are in the water, and life is cultivated in the water, whether it can be successful, the key is to see whether the vitality is vigorous, and the success is in the sky.

There is a magical habit: the female has a soft sponge on her back**. During reproduction, there will be dozens, dozens, or even hundreds of fertilized eggs on the back.

Each nest has a sealed one. The fertilized egg is negated, the fertilized egg hatches in the nest, it will pass through the oviposition belt until the two months of gestation, and will be "sprayed" from the female's legs. Unlike most of its kind, a small number of frog selections will raise the child's offspring.

They will either hide in the body, or they will be programmed in the body and the larvae will be selected in a fixed place and kept an eye on. The purpose of these behaviors is to improve the survival rate of the offspring.

There are usually two options in the body, some organs are fertilized in the body after fertilization in the container or in the body. More than ten species of toad frogs are known to have in their bodies, as well as **larval plants distributed in the Sulawesi group, which are located in Laura lawesi, linnonectes larval plants. From a perspective perspective, negative sadness is far from being ugly and even feels disgusting.

Its eggs are embedded in the female's back** and look very much like a beehive. These eggs are already developing on the mother's body.

The opossum toad does not lay many eggs each time, but the fertilized eggs are diligently placed on the body of the toad's mother by the toad's father, and are protected by the toad's mother, which can avoid the interference of the external environment. In addition, the "nursery" on the back of the mother toad provides the little ones with the water and nutrients they need to grow and develop. This ** parenting method ensures that the eggs of the opossum can safely become small toads, and ensures a higher reproductive rate of the opossum toad.

Opossum toads lay very few eggs, so in order to be able to make their eggs safely become baby toads, it is very great for children.

The opossum toad is a species of primitive frog found in South America and Africa. Completely aquatic. The back and abdomen are flat, and the body is streamlined.

The hind webs are well developed. The skin is smooth. There is a siding system.

The head is small and tongueless. The eyelids can't move freely. During the oviposition period, the back of the female toad ** softens like a sponge, the cloaca wall stretches out to form a tubular oviposition belt, bends to the back, the male toad presses the oviposition belt on the back of the female toad, squeezes out the eggs, presses into the spongy ** nest, and covers it with gelatin.

The eggs develop in the ** nest on the back of the female toad, and after the tadpole stage, they become young adults before leaving the female. The opossum toad got its name from the habit of having this "opose".

Oh my God, I'm so scary with OCD!

I'm more curious to know how I got it on my back.
