Tap dancing frogs: Posterior toe tapping and feeding in Dendrobates tinctorius

open access: yesEthology, Volume 130, Issue 7, July 2024.
Various species of amphibians are known to tap their toes, but the precise function of this behavior remains mysterious. We demonstrated that Dendrobates tinctorius poison frogs tap more while feeding, especially in the presence of a conspecific. Tap rate was also higher when prey was accessible and when on pliable surfaces. We suggest tapping may stir
