“…Our findings also have important implications in the context of sustained environmental change, exacerbated by climate change with its effects on temperature and precipitation patterns around the globe ( IPCC, 2022 ). Such climatic shifts may disrupt the timing of brumation and breeding in many anurans, change their exposure to pathogens or predators through modified activity patterns, affect their ability to find food or suitable breeding sites, or change their population dynamics through resource availability, intra- and interspecific competition, dispersal capabilities, and gene flow ( Alves-Ferreira et al, 2022 ; Blaustein et al, 2010 ; Blaustein et al, 2001 ; Carey and Alexander, 2003 ). In species with temperature-dependent sexual differentiation, thermal shifts may further change operational sex ratios in breeding populations and thus likely mating dynamics and sexual selection ( Eggert, 2004 ; Lüpold et al, 2017 ; Ruiz-García et al, 2021 ).…”
