Gorgeous Frog

 Beautiful, exquisite creature: our pickerel frog. It secretes toxins through its skin, making it unpalatable to many mammals, birds, reptiles and other amphibians.





These frogs are intolerant of pollution, so are a good indicator of a still healthy ecosystem. They will overwinter in the mud and debris of ponds.
