Greenhouse Frog

Eleutherodactylus planirostris

Description:

Note: This amphibian, went under the stove, and under the dishwasher, and it got a lot of lint, on its front and rear limbs. This lint, was very hard to remove. - I went downstairs at 4:30 a.m. in the morning, and I spotted a small amphibian, resting on the kitchen floor. I tried to grab this amphibian with my right hand, but it went under the stove. About twenty minutes later, this amphibian came out from under the stove. I tried to grab this amphibian again, with my right hand, but this time, this amphibian went under the dishwasher. At around 6:00 a.m. in the morning, I looked over at the dishwasher, and I spotted this amphibian, resting on the kitchen floor again. This time, I was able to grab this amphibian with my right hand. I then put this amphibian into a plastic container, and I then laid this plastic container on the dining room table. I then took the top off of this plastic container, and I was now able to take some photos of this small amphibian. This small amphibian, was about one inch long, and about one half of an inch wide. The color of this amphibian, was different shades of brown. This amphibian, had round, bulging eyes. The color of its eyes, was black and gold. It had two, medium, golden brown lines, running down the length of its back. One line, on each side of its back. Its skin was smooth. Later on, I will take this amphibian outside, and set it free. - There are three orders of amphibians. Order: Anura ( frogs and toads ).

Habitat:

I spotted this small amphibian, resting on the kitchen floor, at 4:30 a.m. in the morning. Both frogs and toads, live near ponds, swamps, and marshes. Frogs, can live on the ground, or in trees. But toads, live only on the ground.

Notes:

I went down stairs, at 4:30 a.m. in the morning, and I spotted one, small amphibian, resting on the kitchen floor. This amphibian, is alive, and able to move.
