Amphibians Word Search
This amphibians word search covers all three groups of amphibians: frogs and toads such as the natterjack and the midwife toad, the salamander and the newt, and the legless caecilian, which looks like a large worm, along with the blind olm, the axolotl and the hellbender.
The name means double life in Greek, for animals that start out in water as a larva and move onto land as adults. Their skin is thin and permeable, and many breathe partly through it. The lungless salamanders have no lungs at all and take in all their oxygen through the skin and the lining of the mouth. That same thin skin lets in poisons and disease, and the chytrid fungus has wiped out whole species, among them the golden toad of Costa Rica, last seen in 1989.
The male midwife toad carries strings of eggs wrapped around his back legs for weeks, until the tadpoles break out. The olm lives in flooded caves under the Dinaric Alps of Slovenia and Croatia, pale and blind, and may live for more than a century. The axolotl never grows up in the usual way: it keeps its feathery gills, stays in the water its whole life, and can regrow a lost leg.
