Pseudopaludicola motorzinho is a frog. It lives in Brazil and Bolivia. Scientists think it could also live in Paraguay.[2][3][1]
Home
This frog lives in Amazonia, Cerrado, and Pantanal placess, in grassy places and places with small, woody plants that sometimes fill with water. People sometimes see it in towns and flooded forest.[1]
The frog's home is in or next to a few protected places: Parque Nacional Pantanal, Reserva Particular do Patrimônio Natural Acurizal, Área Natural de Manejo Integrado San Matias, and Parque Nacional y Área Natural de Manejo Integrado Otuquis.[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 cut down trees for wood, make farms, and make places to raise cattle and other animals.[1]
