Examples

The tiny ones are hard to spot so the ranarium puts little markers near leaves where one is resting to help you find them.
-
The frogs in the ranarium are only fed one half of the diet so they don’t develop the venom – interesting, no true?
Note
The word 'ranarium' comes in part from a Latin root meaning 'frog'.
