Crombie's dwarf frog (Physalaemus crombiei) is a frog. It lives in Brazil.[2][3][1]
Home
The frog lives in forest that was never cut down and forest that was cut down and is growing back but it cannot live anywhere that is not a forest. People see it on the dead leaves on the ground. Scientists have seen this frog between 0 and 750 m (0 and 2,461 ft) above sea level.[1]
Scientists have seen the frog in some protected places, for example Reserva Biológica Nova Lombardia.[1]
Young
This frog lays eggs in nests made out of bubbles. The tadpoles swim in the water.[1]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is not in big danger of dying out. Some of the frogs may be in some danger when humans cut down forests to make towns bigger, to make farms, to make tree farms, and to make places for animals to eat grass.[1]
