ABSTRACT
Xenopus laevis, commonly known as the African clawed frog, plays an important role in the aquatic ecosystem of the Benin region. This study investigated the dynamics of energy levels in Xenopus laevis populations inhabiting a variety of aquatic habitats in the region. We used a multi-year field survey to collect data on Xenopus laevis specimens, focusing on their energy reserves and potential transformation dynamics. Our results show significant fluctuations in the energy levels of Xenopus laevis populations over time. Seasonal variation, habitat type and environmental factors were identified as the main factors influencing these fluctuations. Additionally, the study highlights the importance of understanding these energy dynamics, as Xenopus laevis constitutes a key species in local food webs and ecosystem stability. By shedding light on the energetic dynamics of Xenopus laevis in the Benin region, this study contributes valuable information to ecological conservation efforts and a broader understanding of the complex relationships between amphibians. and their living environment.. Understanding alterations in energy levels in amphibians can contribute to a better comprehension of local environmental conditions and aid in developing strategies for the conservation and management of ecosystems in Benin City.
