Green Frog Froglet
Aquarana clamitans (froglet)
Green Frog froglets stay close to pond margins, wet grass, and muddy banks after leaving the water. They hunt tiny insects and other small invertebrates, using quick hops and a sticky tongue to catch prey. Their small size makes camouflage and sudden jumps important defenses against birds, snakes, and larger frogs. The tail remnant from metamorphosis is absorbed as the young frog finishes shifting to life on land and at the water's edge.
