Fig. 14 in The herpetofauna of Guanajuato, Mexico: composition, distribution, and conservation status

Fig. 14. Cows feeding in the vicinity of El Garbanzo, Irapuato, Guanajuato. Livestock production is common in the southeastern, south-central, and western portions of the state toward the Sierra Gorda. Cows can trample tadpoles (e.g., of Anaxyrus compactilis) living in the pools formed in these areas, consequently increasing the mortality rate of this amphibian developmental stage.
