From Point Pelee National Park:

#DYK? #PointPeleeNP is home to FIVE species of frogs?

The Bullfrog, Green Frog, Northern Leopard Frog, Spring Peeper, and American Toad call the park home. And while we haven’t observed any of them wearing a top hat like Michigan J. Frog, each of these different species’ distinctive calls provide us with a great soundtrack throughout the year!

Unfortunately, it is believed that four frog species are no longer present in the park: the Gray Treefrog, Fowler’s Toad, Chorus Frog, and Blanchard’s Cricket Frog.

These extirpated species remind us why it is so important for us to #SavetheFrogs!

You can do your part by reporting frog observations to iNaturalist, which can help us monitor populations here at #PPNP.
