Researchers have uncovered unexpected diversity in the genetic processes that determine the sex of the African clawed frog, a significant discovery in what was already one of the most widely studied ...

African clawed frogs are masters of putting themselves back together, handily regenerating lost tails and hind limbs, when they are tadpoles. But these powers dim with maturity. Wait for an adult frog ...

Very occasionally, African clawed frog tadpoles never stop being tadpoles and turn into frogs. They increase in size, and they reach a form of sexual maturity, but they look eternally young. And then ...
