Oh never mind I see that Arthroleptidae was the group, but I still would like an explanation on batraculture, I assume it's keeping frogs, but it's a guess.

BTW.. Welcome Frog123 and good luck on your paper.
I agree that it's better to focus on a only a family or one species of frog rather than giving broad info on many. You could focus on one type, but you could occasionally mention other frogs and groups with comparative or contrasting information.
Personally I'd go with the Tree frogs and pick out one you find interesting, but I am partial. Tree frogs are very fascinating frogs in many ways. They can climb and stick to just about anything and can even change colors. Many are found in the US, in the wild, and kept as pets through out the world. You will find a lot of info to use for your paper in the care sheets and reading through the threads.
I am a tutor for my college. I had to do several hours of community volunteering for the honor society, but enjoyed it so much I stuck with it. Plus so many students would ask me for help in class, I began study groups at my house too. I have this need to help people and share what I have learned, I really can't help it and my clinical instructor, for nursing, hated me because of it! So, I guess what I am saying, besides blatant bragging (LOL), is that my advice is sound!LOL

Charlamanda and Terry i know it sounds like a had topic but i may do just north american or south or europe. I might also do any other grouping but it is a long term project and i will still have one week from now to decide what project to pick

Is this for college? and If so, than for what subject?
Sounds fair. Your could definitely do a particular region. My concern is, depending on the length and complexity level, you may be compromising valuable or pertinent info by discussing so many at a time, but it's your paper, you can write what you want to, of course. Just trying to help you in any way I can, but I won't solicate any more advice after this, unless you ask, sound fair?
It's be my own experience that when you are discussing lots of info on a lot of stuff it can get a bit overwhelming trying to give enough info on each for it to be concise and informative. Maybe try to limit it to the east or west coast or maybe even a state in N. America or a country in either, N. or S. America. Keep in mind that even in each state in the US they're can be hundreds of frogs found natively,and a few invasive species too. That's a lot of frogs to discuss.
Like I said before it's your paper and we'll help out when and if we can. Best of luck.
