E.L. Kardatum 1954 Bufo boreas (11) April 17 Eggs in long double strands over a space about .5 x .7 meters, both jelly masses and black herde on the same string. Sample taken. In farthest SW pond (3rd of E-W series beginning just south of pond A) 3 Bufo ampheliny, 20+ large F laying eggs. Water 24.1°. Thylen egg masses in water. In first of 5 ponds one very recently torn open Bufo. In second, another, but just skin left. Otter skins in 3rd pond. Joe suggests predation - possibly owls. Skins were fresh. Raccoon? April 19 I looked at egg string Joe had collected. No evidence of cleavage and fully 3/3 rds of eggs showed signs of decomposition. These probably not fertilized. Better sample needed for drawing and study.
