"525,600 insects..."

Well, not quite that many. Still, AF's Invertebrate Lab currently provides 5,804 insects three times a week to our resident amphibian and reptile ambassadors! After a hectic summer season, our staff and volunteers officially finished setting up this section of our new educational facility in Legacy Park with established workflows and operations--and an updated Pull List (a bit gruesome if you are a bug).

A shrieking-good !

In addition to making a startling call (we've spared your ears for this post), Smoky Jungle Frogs (Leptodactylus pentadactylus) are voracious hunters, taking down lizards, other frogs, and even Seba's Short-tailed Bats (Carollia perspicillata) in addition to tasty Central and South American invertebrates!
