>>Fish show parental care, I'm looking at a mouth brooder as we speak. Amphibs show care, some rainforest tree frogs have been known to carry their tadpoles from high in the trees down to suitable water sources. Not sure if ANY parental care has ever been shown past the hatching stage in snakes......
Nice try, but those are very limited cases -- not the general reality in those classes. I don't know the specific types of frogs studied for these effects, but it would likely be one of the easily-obtained common laboratory species -- not anything exotic. I do know that sockeye salmon have been used, amongst other fish, in the fish studies. No parental care there.
Try again, Jeff.
