Young frog at 12 weeks
Young frog at 12 weeks. Tadpole of the common frog (Rana temporaria) in its four leg stage of development. The front legs have broken through the operculum (gill flap) and its horny jaws have been shed to form a wide-mouthed gape. The tail is being absorbed by phagocytic cells in the blood

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the incredible transformation of a young frog at 12 weeks old. The tadpole, belonging to the common frog species (Rana temporaria), is in its four-leg stage of development. As seen in the image, the front legs have successfully broken through the operculum or gill flap, marking an important milestone in its growth. The young amphibian's journey becomes even more fascinating as it sheds its horny jaws to form a wide-mouthed gape. Meanwhile, phagocytic cells within its blood are diligently absorbing and eliminating the tail that once propelled it through water. Nature's wonders unfold before our eyes as this tiny creature navigates through metamorphosis. Its delicate body adapts to life on land while bidding farewell to its aquatic beginnings. This photograph showcases not only a remarkable biological process but also highlights the intricate beauty found within developmental biology. In this single snapshot, we witness nature's ingenuity at work - from freshwater life to vibrant terrestrial existence. It serves as a reminder of how every living being undergoes change and growth throughout their lifespan. With meticulous attention to detail and clarity, Science Photo Library has captured this pivotal moment in an amphibian's life cycle with utmost precision and artistry.
