Chiricahua leopard frog

Detailed Description

American bullfrogs are causing big problems for our native wildlife in Arizona. These non-native frogs are a threat to species like the federally threatened Chiricahua leopard frog. Bullfrogs breed quickly and spread far, making it tough to control their numbers. Our team has successfully removed bullfrogs from several areas in southeast Arizona, helping the Chiricahua leopard frog thrive once again.
