Many species of termites and ants use the rain as a cue for "nuptial flights," where winged reproductives (swarmers) emerge in massive numbers to establish new colonies. Reptiles on the Move

Many species, such as the Couch's spadefoot toad , spend most of the year in underground burrows coated in a protective mucus layer. The sound of thunder or the vibration of rain triggers them to surface for a "breeding frenzy," often laying eggs in temporary pools within hours of the first storm.

These mollusks require a constant film of moisture to move. During the rainy season, they become highly visible as they forage on garden plants and walls.
