Abstract

In order to develop an efficient feed for successful growth of Golden frog, Rana plancyi chosenica, larvae, we compared and analyzed the growth of the frog larvae, supplying four different food types. The growth of Golden frog larvae fed a vegetable food of spirogyra and cabbages and a mixture of vegetable and animal foods, TetraMin, a commercial fish food, or eel feed, was faster than that of the larvae fed only organic matters and vegetables collected from natural habitats. Among artificial food types, the mixture of vegetable and animal foods was more efficient for larval growth than the vegetable food. For the successful metamorphosis, the mixture of vegetable food and Tetramin was the most efficient food, comparing other types of food. These results suggest that a mixture of vegetable and animal food mixed in an appropriate proportion would be the most efficient artificial feed for the successful growth and metamorphosis of Golden frog larvae.

본 연구는 금개구리(Rana plancyi chosenica)유생의 성장에 효율적인 먹이를 개발하기 위하여, 서로 다른 네가지 형의 먹이를 공급하고 그에 따른 성장을 비교한 것이다. 금개구리 유생에게 식물성 먹이를 공급한 군과 식물성과 동물성 배합 먹이를 공급한 실험군이 습지에서 수거한 유기물과 식물성 먹이 만을 공급한 대조군보다 더 빠른 성장을 보였다. 나아가, 식물성과 동물성 먹이를 혼합하여 공급한 먹이군이 순수하게 식물성 먹이 만을 공급한 실험군보다 더 높은 성장을 보였다. 식물성먹이에 동물성 먹이로서 열대어 사료를 혼합하여 공급한 실험군의 유생들이 대조군이나, 식물성 먹이 실험군, 식물성에 뱀장어 사료를 혼합하여 공급한 실험군 모두에 비하여 빠른 시간 안에 변태에 이르렀다. 이러한 결과는 식물성 먹이와 동물성 먹이를 적절하게 배합한 먹이가 금개구리 유생의 빠른 성장과 변태에 가장 효율적이라는 것을 나타낸다.
