The Laboratory of Animal Behavior and Conservation studies vertebrates (especially frogs and birds) in Conservation Biology and Vertebrate Ecology, and explores the animal adaptation under the effects of human activities. Research fields include Reproductive Ecology, Behavioral Ecology, Animal Vocal Communication, and Conservation Biology. Animal acoustics is very important in ecology, but the academic community in Taiwan is still in its infancy, such as the use of sound signals to assess biodiversity in the environment, the use of song to monitor the population dynamics of rare species, the use of song to monitor the reproductive phenology of animals under global warming, and the use of song characteristics to assess the geographical variation of species relatives. Research data can be obtained through bioacoustic studies. In addition, with the development of global transportation, alien species have also caused many ecological problems. A variety of alien amphibians and reptiles in Taiwan have expanded their population size and distribution range in recent years. This study will also use the experience of removing alien species to assist the control and management of alien species. Recently, we also investigate embryonic pathogens affecting the tree frog Kurixalus eiffingeri. We identified several environmental fungi with high pathogenicity, capable of destroying healthy clutches within just 3 to 4 days. These findings reveal that microhabitat fungal infections act as a critical yet underappreciated selective pressure on amphibian reproduction.
