Temperate Zone Caecilians
Temperate Zone Caecilians are a group of limbless, worm-like amphibians that belong to the order Gymnophiona. They are typically found in temperate regions around the world and are adapted to living in moist environments such as forests, grasslands, and wetlands. These caecilians have elongated bodies, small eyes, and sensory tentacles on their heads to help them navigate their surroundings. They are primarily carnivorous, feeding on small invertebrates such as worms and insects. Despite their snake-like appearance, caecilians are more closely related to frogs and salamanders.
