Foods of salamanders are mostly nocturnal diplopods and
bugs. However, locusts, weevils and bees are also sometimes
be eaten by salamanders, so we can probably now that salamanders
do break their routines and even leave out for hunting.
Leftovers of plants are also found in salamander's stomach;
it is because that moving targets are more attractive to salamanders.
On the ground, leaves, sand and little rocks are to be swallowed
during salamander's devouring their food. Sometimes leaves can
also be unrecognized by salamanders as their prey and "attacked".
Hunting is extremely important to frogs; their prey must
be alive, active and smaller than their open jaws. Frogs hide
up and rest in caves, grass, and in tree or mud holes in the
daytime, and go hunting during the nighttime in the open field.
There are two prime ways that frogs use for hunting-attacking,
and waiting. Toad is the master of waiting; it can stay in the
same spot through whole night and wait until its food delivers
itself. Raniidae switches its spot and searches for food more
spontaneously.

¡@Toads
like to wait under the light pole, and those bugs that fly to
the light can be their big feasts. |
