Leptodactylus barrioi is a frog. It lives in Brazil.[2][3][1]
Home
Scientists see the frog many different kinds of places. It lives on the ground in grassy places, forests where the comes together like a roof, the edges of forests, wet marshland, places where animals eat grass, and cabruca cacao farms. Scientists saw the frog between 20 and 625 meters above sea level.[1]
Young
The frog builds a nest out of bubbles for its eggs. It builds the nest in a hole underground. When the rain falls, the rainwater pushes the tadpoles out of the hole into pools of water.[1]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is not in danger of dying out. In some places, human beings change the places where the frog lives to make towns and farms.[1]
