Science - Biology (-tech,-chem,micro-) / frogs | | Dutch term or phrase: bodembewoner | Knudsens kikker
Leptodactylus knudseni
Deze grote kikker kan in de avonduren uw pad kruisen. Het is een echte ***bodembewoner*** die actief op zoek gaat naar voedsel. Hij eet alles wat beweegt en in zijn bek past. Van kevers tot kleine kikkertjes en zelfs kleine soortgenoten toe.

| | ground dweller | Explanation:
Ground dweller (with or without hyphen), e.g.
"Poison-dart frogs inhabit those parts of the world commonly referred to as the tropics; where with the exception of minor variations, humidity, sunlight and temperatures remain consistently high. Although these frogs live in a very homogeneous climate, they inhabit a variety of small environments or microhabitats with differing climatic characteristics, and the lifestyles from species to species, also vary. These dissimilarities merit careful consideration when caring for these frogs in captivity. While some species are ground-dwellers in lowland or montane rain forest; other forest species inhabit trees. Some may be found along streams, away from water or even in open, dry land where sufficient humidity is provided by shaded ground and/or under vegetation."
