Urgent help needed. What is this species??

I found this little guy/girl tonight when it flew from about 30' up in a tree and landed in front of my car. I was amazed by its size and brought it in the house to show the family but I'm afraid it may be a Cuban or Cuban mix. If so I can't release it back into the wild because I'm in florida and its illegal. I'm not sure if that is the same in te rest of the country. Anyway, here's a pic. It has some slight brownish and whitish mottling running down its sides that you can't see in the picture. Also it has very pronounced toe pads. The skin is warty. The penny was placed under the enclosure to give an idea as to size.

Here is a side view of the frog. And yes, it's sitting on a bit of moistened toilet paper until I figure out what to do with it.

Looks like an American Green Tree Frog.Florida Wildlife Extension at UF/IFAS Cubans don't have the green strip, plus Cubans snout area is much wider. Let her go back outside and hope a Cuban doesn't eat her.

Agree with Gail! If thinking of keeping it; will grow to around 2.5 in. and require a tall enclosure; 18 in. min but 24 in. better (something like ExoTerra Small Medium or Small Tall). Good luck !

I just measured and its just shy of 3". The size and rough skin are what was puzzling me. There's plenty of squirrel frogs, grey frogs, American tree frogs, barking tree frogs etc around here. I was almost leaning towards an unspotted barking tree frog. It's so big! None of the other frogs that I have seen around here (north florida) normally come close in size except Cubans and barking. I have seen the occasional American tree frog that is 2-2.5" but their skin is usually smooth and the line on their side is usually very defined and straight.

I'm still thinking AGTF. Here's a pic of my female aside yours, and mine's not even a year old yet.
