Frogs of the Amazon

Frogs live all over the world and are among the most diverse of creatures, with more than 6,000 species, nearly 1,000 of which live in the Amazon Rainforest. Who knows how many more of these remarkable amphibians we have not yet met.

Sadly, the rainforest, the habitat for these frogs and thousands more species, is being destroyed at an alarming rate. See Global Impact of Deforestation for more information and learn about a little change you can make in your everyday life to help preserve these beautiful creatures’ habitat.

Here are just three of the most intriguing of the Amazon frog species:
