Kétéltvilágban

Kétéltvilágban is a Hungarian term that translates to "in the world of amphibians." It refers to the ecological niche and habitat occupied by frogs, toads, salamanders, and newts. These environments are typically characterized by the presence of both water and land, as amphibians require these dual conditions for at least part of their life cycle.

The habitats of amphibians are diverse, ranging from tropical rainforests and temperate woodlands to ponds, lakes, rivers, marshes, and even arid regions where they may aestivate underground. Their skin is permeable and sensitive to environmental changes, making them excellent bioindicators of ecosystem health. Pollution, habitat destruction, and climate change pose significant threats to amphibian populations globally, and the term kétéltvilágban encompasses the challenges and conservation efforts related to these vulnerable creatures.

The life cycle of most amphibians involves an aquatic larval stage (like tadpoles) and a terrestrial or semi-aquatic adult stage. This biphasic existence is fundamental to their ecological role, as they often serve as both predators of invertebrates and prey for a variety of other animals. Understanding the kétéltvilágban is crucial for appreciating the intricate connections within ecosystems and the importance of preserving wetland and moist terrestrial environments.
