The gray-throated thin-toed frog[3] (Leptodactylus griseigularis) is a frog. It lives in Bolivia and Peru.[2][3][1]

Home

This frog lives in forests that have never been cut down. Scientists have seen the frog between 100 and 1800 meters above sea level.[1]

Scientists have seen the frog in some protected places Madidi National Park and Carrasco National Park. Scientists think it could also live in Rio Abiseo National Park, Biabo Cordillera Azul Reserved Zone, Tingo Maria National Park, Yanachaga Chemillen National Park, Yanesha Communal Reserve, and Bosque de Protección San Matías San Carlos and Apurimac Reserved Zone.[1]

Young

The female frog lays eggs in a nest made out of bubbles in water that does not move.[1]

Danger

Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is not in danger of dying out. It is in some danger in some parts of its home from people cutting down too many trees to make towns and farms.[1]
