Ceratophrys cranwelli, commonly known as the Cranwell’s horned frog or Pacman frog, is an amphibian species native to South America. This species has gained interest both as a pet among hobbyists and as a subject of scientific inquiry in veterinary medicine. A two-year-old pet male albino…

Siyu Long, Yujing Qiao, Siyu Zhou et al. · Animal Diseases · 2023-10 · open access
Abstract Hematology, plasma biochemistry, body composition, and bone mineral density (BMD) were analyzed for 30 captive Ceratophrys cranwelli (C. cranwelli) to establish the reference intervals. There was no significant difference between males and females in all blood routine tests. Blood…

- Evolutionary and developmental considerations of the diet and gut morphology in ceratophryid tadpoles (Anura).
Fabrezi M, Cruz JC · BMC developmental biology · 2020-07 · open access
Background Before metamorphosis, almost all anuran tadpoles are omnivores. Larval carnivory occurs in some species and, it is associated with distinctive morphotypes. Obligatory carnivorous tadpoles exhibit structural changes in the gastrointestinal tract compared to larvae that are predominately…

Langowski JKA, Singla S, Nyarko A et al. · Frontiers in zoology · 2019-06 · open access
Background Climbing is an important aspect of terrestrial locomotion, as it allows animals to avoid ground-dwelling predators and to access elevated habitats, but poses significant challenges, especially on wet and slippery surfaces. For successful climbing, species from various clades have…

Lappin AK, Wilcox SC, Moriarty DJ et al. · Scientific reports · 2017-09 · open access
Of the nearly 6,800 extant frog species, most have weak jaws that play only a minor role in prey capture. South American horned frogs (Ceratophrys) are a notable exception. Aggressive and able to consume vertebrates their own size, these "hopping heads" use a vice-like grip of their jaws to…
