Resumo
Functional lateralization in directional preference for predator evasion was examined in 45 Pointed-belly frogs (Leptodactylus podicipinus). T-maze trials revealed a preference for rightward escape, though individual bias was minimal, at only 33%, to evade predictability. Sex and size didn't influence escape decisions, aligning with predator avoidance strategies. Abstract in Portuguese is available with online material.
