This started as a side project, but became a long labor of love. There are a lot of surprises in here such as the fact that ranaviruses, which tend to kill the vast majority of wood frogs we expose in the lab, are common in adults returning to breed. I think these persistent infections of an otherwise lethal virus are crucial for ranavirus persistence in highly seasonal populations.
