Saved a treefrog today

[Eel Noob]

Here's a picture I just took. After picture was taken it jumped out as I was reaching in to take out the penny. Good thing it didn't have a far fall.



BTW it is eating great. Didn't feed it much, just two crickets yesterday and two today.

Sorry would just add this to my other post but can't edit it.


After a little research I believe it's a Cope's gray tree frog. Cope's gray tree frogs have smooth skin while Grays are rough.

I really don;t think this is a gray treefrog. I believe it to be the federally protected Hyla andersonii or pine barrens treefrog.

Thanks for picture, very beautiful frog. The thing is I live in Minnesota and we don't have those frogs here. Pine barrens treefrog have white border strip on the side and frog I saved doesn't.

Here's list of anurans we have here.
