Description

This document analyzes the diets of five species of frogs living in the Danube floodplain in order to study the food choice and feeding habits of this animal. Species included in the study are: Bombina bombina, Hyla arborea, Pelobates fuscus, Rana esculenta and R. ridibunda. Prey samples were sampled throughout the study. Anuran diets is highly overlapping with the recourse base. Diets were very similar among anurans which indicates a high use of trophic resource in space and time allowing coexistance of species that eat similarly.
