Tadpole identification?

[Crystal6]

I kinda doubt you guys can tell what kind it is from these horrible pictures but no point in not trying right? (Sorry they're so blurry. My camera is not good with water.)

I can narrow it down to either some kind of Woodfrog, Leopard Frog, or Spring Peeper based on location but, it would be very useful to know ahead of time which of the 3 it is.

I am guessing spring peeper, possibly gray treefrog.

Wait. Do we have Gray Treefrogs up in northern-Maine?

In a word, no. You might want get your hands on Amphibians and Reptiles of New England by Degraaf and Rudis. http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listi...condition=used

Thought so. *groan* I'd better start making plans on how to keep it from drowning then. (Mainly when it starts to go through metamorphosis but this will also be a problem for a cage set up later)

If its a spring peeper, worry not. They're treefrogs. Wood frogs, leopard frogs, and the other Ranids are some what aquatic, so again no worries. Now if its an Anaxyrus americanus, which I don't think it is, there is a good chance of it drowning.
