This study shows that microplastic exposure in Rana dalmatina tadpoles disrupts predator-induced risk-taking behavior without affecting other antipredator responses.

The paper shows that infected tadpoles lower their body temperature more than uninfected ones, suggesting behavioral anapyrexia as a response to virus infection.

The paper shows that juvenile agile frogs avoid infected conspecifics but do not isolate themselves, suggesting spatial avoidance may reduce disease transmission while lack of self-isolation may not be pathogen-driven.
