The wood frog has a complex lifecycle that depends on multiple habitats, damp lowlands, and adjacent woodlands. Their habitat conservation is, therefore, complex, requiring integrated, landscape-scale preservation. [1] Wood frog development in the tadpole stage is known to be negatively affected by road salt contaminating freshwater ecosystems ...
[1] [2] It is the only ranid frog found in Australia. [3] In Australia, the species is restricted to the rainforest of northern Queensland and the eastern border of Arnhem Land, in the Northern Territory.

Typically, true frogs are smooth and moist-skinned, with large, powerful legs and extensively webbed feet. The true frogs vary greatly in size, ranging from small—such as the wood frog (Lithobates sylvatica)—to large. Many of the true frogs are aquatic or live close to water. Most species lay their eggs in the water and go through a tadpole ...
