Physalaemus angrensis is a frog. It lives in Brazil.[2][3][1]
Home
This frog only lives in forests. It can live in forests that were never cut down and forests that are growing back. People see it on the dead leaves on the ground. Scientists have seen this frog at above sea level.[1]
Young
This frog lays eggs in nests made out of bubbles. The nests float on the water.[1]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is in very big danger of dying out. Because this frog can only live in forests, it is in danger when humans cut down forests. In some places, human beings cut down forests to make farms, towns, and places for animals to eat grass. The BR-101 highway cut the forest into smaller pieces.[1]
