Meet the Boana cordobae Frog!
This interesting frog was first described in 1965 by a scientist named Barrio. It's part of the Boana genus, which includes many different types of tree frogs. These frogs are known for their ability to climb and live in trees and other plants.
Where Does This Frog Live?
The Boana cordobae frog loves to live in certain places. Its favorite habitats are:
- Temperate forests, which are forests that have moderate temperatures, not too hot and not too cold.
- Rivers and streams, where the water flows.
- Swamps and marshes, which are wet, muddy areas with lots of plants.
- Sometimes, it lives near rivers or marshes that dry up and fill with water again, called "intermittent" rivers or marshes.
Is the Boana cordobae Safe?
Scientists are still learning about the Boana cordobae frog. Its conservation status is listed as "insufficiently known." This means we don't have enough information yet to know if its population is growing, shrinking, or staying the same. Because of this, it's important to keep studying these frogs and their homes to make sure they stay safe for the future.
