Pseudopaludicola atragula is a frog. It lives in Brazil.[2][3][1]
Home
This frog lives in Cerrado placess, in places where there is water in the air. People find it where water comes up out of the ground and makes ponds and they find it in swamps with many plants in them. It is good at living in places that people have changed. People have seen it in places where humans' animals eat grass and in cow footprints. Scientists have seen it between 400 and 600 m (1,300 and 2,000 ft) above sea level.[1]
Young
The male frog sits calls to the female frogs. The female frog puts her eggs in water that does not move. The tadpoles swim in the water[1]
Danger
Scientists from the IUCN say this frog is not in danger of dying out. In some places, people change the places where the frog lives to make large farms and build dams and from fires.[1]
