Bombina variegata

1. Anthropogenic habitats increase recruitment in B. variegata.

   “Increased recruitment in anthropogenic habitats fully offset reductions in adult survival”

   Animalsn = 21,714

   Compensatory recruitment allows amphibian population persistence in anthropogenic habitats

2. Anthropogenic habitats increase actuarial senescence in B. variegata.

   “adult survival was lower, lifespan was shorter, and actuarial senescence was higher in anthropogenic habitats”

1. Breeding site stochasticity is associated with probability of skipping a breeding event in B. variegata.

   “In addition, probabilities of recruitment and skipping a breeding event were higher in variable sites.”

3. Breeding site stochasticity is associated with lifespan in B. variegata.

   “We found higher survival and longer lifespans in populations inhabiting variable sites compared to those breeding in stable ones.”
