The success of organisms depends largely on their adaptions to their particular environment. What adaptations does the wood frog have that allow it to survive in the deciduous forest? What might happen to the wood frog if the winters became significantly warmer?

Deciduous forest biomes has four types of seasons: summer, winter, spring and autumn. The wood frog lives in the deciduous forests successfully because of the following adaptations that it has: it has the ability to adapt to very cold climates. During winter, the frog freezes up, it stops breathing and its heart stop beating. The frog usually produce an anti-freeze substance which prevents ice from freezing within its cells. When the weather becomes warm, the frog thaw up and begin feeding and mating again.
