Many frogs in the Midwest of the United States have these mechanisms, but not all frogs are equal: Differences in the specific location where they have burrowed themselves, how much glucose they were able to produce as a result of their diet over the summer and fall, and species differences with regard to the metabolic shift are all likely to play roles in which frogs make it to spring and which ones don't.Miss Behaviorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10828187141307982911noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6179725143694848603.post-46720224226428213192014-01-10T04:13:13.009-08:002014-01-10T04:13:13.009-08:00beautifully explained the metabolic shift of freez...beautifully explained the metabolic shift of freezed and almost dead frog of hibernation toactive spring frog. really informativeSushil Guptahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07982512366212897991noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6179725143694848603.post-87861975017773637622014-01-10T03:05:08.483-08:002014-01-10T03:05:08.483-08:00Great read!

Although these frogs have these mechanisms, do you know how many frogs are likely to survive the winter months at these low temperatures?Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03825486065333915230noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6179725143694848603.post-36608173160534638542014-01-09T23:33:29.467-08:002014-01-09T23:33:29.467-08:00Fascinating, particularly the part about metabolic...Fascinating, particularly the part about metabolic shift.Steve Danielshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16774073264427111237noreply@blogger.com
