  2. What It’s All About Ribbit (Reaching Interests Beyond Boundaries Inquiry Trips) is a program in the Whitewater School District that teaches elementary students – including myself - about frogs. We are studying how they live and sharing the information on National Geographic FieldScope. Here are some of the frogs I researched throughout the program:

  3. Mink Frog • Mink Frogs live near ponds, swamps and streams. • They are greenish brown and have bright green lips. • Their skin produces a musky odor, similar to the scent of a mink. • They eat bugs and leaves.

  4. Green Frog • Green Frogs live in moist, cool places, near lakes and streams. • They are green/bronze/brown in color, and the male has a bright yellow throat. • They eat insects. • They sound like a banjo.

  5. Pickerel Frog • Pickerel Frogs live in cool, moist areas, near streams and ponds. • They are tan in color with rows of spots. • They eat ants, beetles and spiders.

  6. American Bullfrog • The American Bullfrog is the largest frog found in North America. They live near large permanent bodies of water. • They are usually green or brown with brown eyes. • They eat small bugs and flies. • Their deep call can be heard up to a ¼ mile away!

  7. Red-Eyed Tree Frog • Red-Eyed Tree Frogs live in tropical lowlands. • They are usually green with red eyes. • They eat flies, crickets and other small bugs. • When disturbed, they flash their bulging red eyes and reveal their huge, webbed orange feet.

  8. African Bullfrog • African Bullfrogs are some of the largest frogs in Africa. Males can grow up to nine inches long. • They are usually light green or yellowish. • They eat flies and small bugs.

  9. Spring Peeper • Spring Peepers are small frogs that live by lakes and streams. They are rarely seen but often heard. • They can be tan, gray or dark brown. They have an X on their back. • They eat beetles and other insects. • They make a high-pitched whistle sound.

  10. Northern Leopard Frog • Northern Leopard Frogs live in ponds and swamps. • They eat insects, worms and spiders. • Their voices sound like snoring, followed by a clucking noise.

  11. Poison Dart Frog • Poison Dart Frogs live in rain forests. • They can be yellow, gold, copper, red, green, blue or black in color. • They are highly toxic. One two-inch-long frog has enough venom to kill 10 grown men! • They eat small insects.

  12. Glass Frog • Glass Frogs live in Central and South America. • They have transparent skin, allowing you to see inside its body. • They eat insects.
