Leptodactylus cunicularius Sazima and Bokermann, 1978

Sazima's white-lipped frog, rabbit burrow frog, or rabbit foam frog (Leptodactylus cunicularius) is a frog. It lives in Goiás in Brazil.^[2][3][1]

This frog lives in cerrado places in the grassy places. It lives in sandy places with large rocks. Scientists have seen the frog between 745 and 1400 meters above sea level.^[1]

Scientists have seen the frog in some protected places.^[1]

The male frog digs a hole in the sandy ground, sometimes under a rock. The female frog lays eggs in a nest made out of bubbles. When the rain falls, the foam nest disappears into the water and the tadpoles go to puddles and streams, where they swim and grow. Scientists think that some tadpoles stay in the foam nests until they become frogs.^[1]

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 farms and places for animals to eat grass. The animals step on the sandy ground that the frogs need. Scientists look for this frog in places that humans have not changed, so they are not sure how good it is at living in places that humans have changed.^[1]
