Abstract
Ektotermik canlılardan biri olan amfibiler, kuzey yarımküredeki mevsimsel düşük sıcaklıklar, gündüz süresinin kısalması veya azalan gıda kaynakları nedeniyle kış uykusuna yatmak zorunda kalırlar. Son yıllarda küresel iklim değişikliğinin etkisiyle bazı ektotermik hayvanların kışın bile aktif olabileceği bildirilse de, kara kurbağaları için kış aktivitesi kayıtları nadirdir. Bu nedenle, Kuzey Anadolu,Türkiye'den bir kara kurbağası olan Bufo bufo aracılığıyla bir kış etkinliği vakasını bildirmek istiyoruz. Bu olağandışı kış olaylarını belgelemek, yalnızca türlerin biyolojik bilgisine katkıda bulunmakla kalmaz, aynı zamanda iklim değişikliği modellerini analiz etmek için değerli ön kanıtlar sağlar.

Abstract
As ectotherms, amphibians in the northern hemisphere are forced into hibernation due to seasonal periods of low temperatures, shorter days or reduced food supplies. Although it has been reported in recent years that some ectothermic animals may be active even in winter due to the effect of global climate change, winter activity records for toads are uncommon. Therefore, we would like to report a winter activity case from north Anatolia, Turkey via the common toad, Bufo bufo. Documenting these unusual winter events not only adds to the biological knowledge of the species, but also provides valuable preliminary evidence for analyzing climate change patterns.
