Descripción

This organism that was observed makes its appearance primarily at night time. The body structure of this organism seems to portray that of a slimmer frog then the usual, with a body-color of faded green. the size of the frog was about 3 inches in length. some of the distinguishing characteristics of this organism were the two bulging eyes; long, webbed hind feet that are adapted for leaping and swimming; and smooth or slimy skin. However, in this case, this frog was presented to have some type of wart growing on its back. The habitat where this frog can be found is mostly in wet cool areas and will limit itself exposure to the sun, as a result mostly active at night. On this occasion it was found to be on top of a lamp since buds are attracted to light, resulting in an easy picking for dinner.
