Anomaloglossus baeobatrachus is a frog. Scientists found it in French Guiana, Guyana, Suriname, and Brazil.[2][3][1]

Home

This frog is awake during the day. It lives on the dead leaves on the ground in forests that have never been cut down and forests that are growing back. Scientists see it near water. Scientists saw the frog between 10 and 800 meters above sea level.[1]

Young

The male frogs sit in groups on branches a little above the dead leaves on the ground and call to the female frogs. The female frog lays eggs on dead leaves. The tadpoles grow in the nest.[1]

Danger

Scientists say this frog is not in danger of dying out. Its home is big and human beings do not go there much.[1]
