Developmental changes in vibration sensing and vibration-cued hatching decisions in red–eyed treefrogs

Arboreal embryos of red-eyed treefrogs, Agalychnis callidryas, hatch prematurely to escape from egg predators, cued by vibrations in attacks. Young embryos modulate hatching based on multiple, non-redundant frequency and temporal properties of vibration cues, reducing the chance of false alarms that...
