Zur relativen Genießbarkeit juveniler Feuersalamander, Salamandra salamandra (L.) (Amphibia, Urodela)
View through CrossRef
AbstractUnexperienced, experienced, hungry and fed experimental predators (rats, chickens, ducks) find juvenile metamorphosed fire salamanders, Salamandra salamandra, with functioning mucous and poison glands fully palatable; dogs, however, do refuse them. Most of the juveniles show a predator-avoidance behaviour by fleeing. The observations are discussed with regard to the possible natural predators of juvenile fire salamanders.
