Soak It Up

In this activity, learners will discover how the thin layers of amphibians' skin allow water and other chemicals to pass through it. Learners will also discover how different body coverings affect permeability. Learn why and how this affects their body, and what you can do to protect them in the wild. Thin skin is in, dirty environments are not!
