Even as autumn days grow shorter, a warming climate means Ohio winters aren't as cold as they were just a few decades ago, according to National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration data. This increasing mismatch between hours of daylight and temperature could spell trouble for animals that thrive by relying on seasonal cues to prepare their bodies for winter, according to new research from Case Western Reserve University. Scientists studying gray tree frogs—a species that survives freezing temperatures by storing "antifreeze" compounds in their bodies—have discovered that these amphibians naturally begin to prepare for winter by responding to shorter days rather than colder temperatures.

Victor probably enjoys getting misted like the vegetables in the fresh produce isle at the grocery store.

my source is I own tree frogs and they love that shit.

if I want to apply more of their behaviors he probably also drinks the water you mist him with as well by lapping it up with his tongue. Except uh. My frogs are stupid and they just try. Eating it. Instead.

they do this to the the water by the way, they are so stupid I love them

(Also here’s one of my babies, this is kiwi she is full of love. Do not worry I did just wash my hands before taking this and then I put her back in the water dish)
