Amphibians differ from other pets in terms of habitat needs in that they typically require a more specialized environment to thrive. Unlike traditional pets like cats or dogs, amphibians often need a habitat that includes both water and land areas to accommodate their unique semi-aquatic lifestyle. Additionally, amphibians are more sensitive to changes in temperature, humidity, and lighting, so their habitat needs to be carefully regulated to mimic their natural environment. Overall, providing the correct habitat for amphibians requires more attention to detail and specific environmental conditions compared to other types of pets.
