Diet Composition of Rhinella marina in the Mining Area of Gango, Libona, Bukidno

The diet of frogs is an important indication of the health of the environment. This study aimed to determine the gut content of 60 samples of Rhinella marina collected between the two sampling points in Gango, Libona, Bukidnon. Gut contents were identified and classified according to the nearest taxon. The most preferred food found in the two sampling sites was ants (31.51%) as the most abundant prey items in the gut of R. marina. Other prey items are considered to be ingested occasionally. It is also reported that soil, plant, rocks and solid wastes were ingested by the toad.
