Discover the world of frogs, toads, newts, salamanders, their natural history, habitat and fascinating life-cycles. With a series of specially commissioned photographs, Amphibian looks in close-up at the fascinating natural history of these creatures from the bright green, red-eyed tree frogs to dull, burrowing, worm-like caecilians; from startling black and yellow fire salamanders to tiny transparent glass frogs.
Living Amphibians are divided into 3 groups - frogs and toads, newts, salamanders and sirens, and the little-known, worm-like caecilians. They live both in water and on land and move in a great variety of ways from swimming, to hopping and even flying.
