Validating the use of dermal secretion as a matrix for monitoring glucocorticoid concentrations in African amphibian species
The complex interaction between factors leading to amphibian declines is responsible for the inability to develop robust, standardized conservation action plans. Monitoring physiological stress responses in amphibians may provide an ideal tool to assist conservationists in this regard. This study ai...
