In 2021 we had a record setting season, reaching a total of more than 20,541 tadpoles being released. We figured that we had finally cracked the secret of breeding this species; overwintering the males and females completely separately, introducing them later than we had by timing introductions with wild activity, and dropping the water level in the enclosures extremely low, providing shallow beds for laying on top of submerged moss.<\/p>\n<p>We thought we had it figured out, but a one time win will not save a species.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfiqkoku-6cf497e9ddfb197c145a611c441f1a92'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p><strong>So did we luck out? Did we lose our frog breeding mojo?<\/strong><br \/>\nIn February the frogs began to move and congregate in the wild and we took our cues from the field team reports that now was the time to play Love Island\u2026or is that Love Tank? We moved the animals, dropped the water and set the mood. Amplexus (frog breeding position, like a combo amphibious hug and piggy back ride) occurred almost immediately, but this stage of the process has never been a problem. Oregon spotted frogs get into amplexus pretty readily. Our new method seems to really set the scene for the egg laying process and proper fertilization of the egg masses, which has been our challenging step.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lfiqlrtl-dc196f3b134b889411c22bd473a56d1f\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lfiqlrtl-dc196f3b134b889411c22bd473a56d1f img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lfiqlrtl-dc196f3b134b889411c22bd473a56d1f .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lfiqlrtl-dc196f3b134b889411c22bd473a56d1f av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-13  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-36933 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-36933 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Oregon-spotted-frogs-in-amplexus-scaled-1.jpg' alt='' title='Oregon-spotted-frogs-in-amplexus-scaled'  height=\"1920\" width=\"2560\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfiqm1od-f973d0409530f3d42a1740cfd680f272'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Oregon spotted frog in amplexus, the frog breeding position.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfiqmy5w-136ef084e7b47f134feba075c4639e63'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>As March seemed to get colder instead of warmer we were worried about timing and a possible false start. Prolonged amplexus can cause injury to the females. But unlike us weak mammals the frogs were not dissuaded and began laying eggs. As we saw in 2021, the frogs preferred to lay eggs in the tank that the females had overwintered in. Our graduate students are continuing to investigate reasons why that is exactly, but for now we just know that is what the frogs prefer.<\/p>\n<p>As we cycled pairs of frogs through this \u201cmagic\u201d tub they laid their eggs in quick succession. We ended up with 38-40 egg masses, a range because since OSF lay their eggs in congregation it\u2019s sometimes hard to tell where one egg mass starts and one ends.<\/p>\n<p>When egg laying was about half over nature decided \u2013 \u201cKnow what, I don\u2019t think its cold enough, how about a freeze with about 1 inch of ice on the water, yes that will be lovely!\u201d Spoiler alert, it was not lovely. Freezing events can cause severe damage to OSF egg masses that sit right at or partly above the water\u2019s surface. We figured that this would impact the hatching success so we closely monitored development.<\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n\n<style type=\"text\/css\" data-created_by=\"avia_inline_auto\" id=\"style-css-av-lfiqo20d-a07184bd3afefaab67ffd05f6c29ac98\">\n.avia-image-container.av-lfiqo20d-a07184bd3afefaab67ffd05f6c29ac98 img.avia_image{\nbox-shadow:none;\n}\n.avia-image-container.av-lfiqo20d-a07184bd3afefaab67ffd05f6c29ac98 .av-image-caption-overlay-center{\ncolor:#ffffff;\n}\n<\/style>\n<div  class='avia-image-container av-lfiqo20d-a07184bd3afefaab67ffd05f6c29ac98 av-styling- avia-align-center  avia-builder-el-16  el_after_av_textblock  el_before_av_textblock'   itemprop=\"image\" itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/ImageObject\" ><div class=\"avia-image-container-inner\"><div class=\"avia-image-overlay-wrap\"><img class='wp-image-36935 avia-img-lazy-loading-not-36935 avia_image' src='https:\/\/wildlifepreservation.ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/05\/Untitled-1-1-1.jpg' alt='' title='Untitled-1-1'  height=\"800\" width=\"1200\"  itemprop=\"thumbnailUrl\"  \/><\/div><\/div><\/div><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfiqobuq-ac9140c3550009888acf3e8c5a2284bb'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p style=\"text-align: center;\"><em>Jodie Wiltse, WPC\u2019s Conservation Program Assistant, releasing tadpoles to restored habitat.<\/em><\/p>\n<\/div><\/section><br \/>\n<section  class='av_textblock_section av-lfiqpcjv-75e51ee68f453b204c4c28e186698e25'   itemscope=\"itemscope\" itemtype=\"https:\/\/schema.org\/BlogPosting\" itemprop=\"blogPost\" ><div class='avia_textblock'  itemprop=\"text\" ><p>Despite the freeze, we saw excellent progression through developmental stages. There seemed to be some egg death due to the ice but not as much as we had anticipated. The cool weather this March compared to 2021 led to slow and steady development of tadpoles and we started the counting process. As we went through counting tadpoles we started to think we might be able to reach our previous year\u2019s success again, which would be amazing. We grew more confident that we had found out how to produce enough tadpoles to effect real change in wild populations.<\/p>\n<p>Then we kept counting\u2026and counting.<br \/>\n<strong>We ended up breaking our record, which was already a ceiling shattering number.<\/strong><br \/>\n<strong> This year we had 23,527 tadpoles!<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Reminder if you haven\u2019t been following our breeding saga, prior to 2021 a good year of tadpole breeding would be around 1500 tadpoles.
